Winter Camp 7 Report

Hamilton-Baris

Mother nature sent the Bushwackers an apology for “SNOWING” us out of our grass rehearsal facility for Sunday. Saturday at the Hamilton, NJ St. Patrick’s Parade, Corps Director Bob Gupta received word from our winter home, The Princeton Day School, that the grounds were too wet from Friday’s snow for us to use them on Sunday.

Bob immediately found us a new rehearsal facility that could potentially be another regular practice site.


After some logistical issues were worked out the corps arrived on Sunday morning and learned 15 pages of drill hot off the presses from drill designer Dave Caravella. The drill was taught to an eager drum corps by Nate Savalza who said “If today’s rehearsal is any indication of what the season is going to be like, WE ARE in very good shape.”

The Bushwackers still have a few spots open – Will you be part of the change?

If you are interested, WE ARE happy to answer any questions you may have. Check our FAQ page, or click here for any other questions.


The six-time DCA world champion Bushwackers are a competitive drum and bugle corps based in Princeton, NJ. We rehearse twice a month through the winter and early spring, then perform most weekends throughout the summer. Our members range in age from 15 to 25+, with an average age of about 20. The Bushwackers’ goal is to provide a world class drum corps experience to our members that’s educational, fun, affordable, and competitively successful.
