Yes! You can. Keep an eye out for more info.

We're not ready to announce it yet, but don't worry. It won't dissapoint.

Caption Heads will be reaching out shortly with info detailing the audition process. In addition to skill sets, some factors include level of fitness, attendance, adherence to the corps's core values as described in our  Member Policy book, and the ability to meet the financial obligations.

The base tuition for the season is $2,400.

Yes. Fundraising opportunities are presented throughout the year. Members will be made aware of these opportunities as they come up. There are also referral discounts for members that successfully recruit new members, and family discounts for multiple people in the same family marching together.

Many members are able to offset most or all of their tuition through fundraising and sponsorships from family, friends and local businesses.

We are fortunate to have a lot of staff and members involved in indoor programs, so  during the winter season, the rehearsal schedule will be light.

Starting at the end of April and through the end of the competitive season, culminating at the DCI Champsionships in Indy,  rehearsals run every weekend from Saturday at 8:00 a.m. through Sunday at 4:00  pm (of course we’ll let you sleep 😊). Friday nights may be added. Once we know more about that, we will confirm well in advance.

Meals will be provided for shows on the road.

Meals are not typically provided at rehearsals. A weekend schedule will be provided before every camp, and we will notify members ahead of time if meals are being provided. 

If we are not feeding  the corps, we suggest bringing meals. It’s more cost-effective and, more importantly, a  healthier option; however, food establishments are typically near our rehearsal facilities, making it easy to get meals.

Housing will be provided when we travel to regular-season shows and to Indianapolis,  Indiana, for Championships. 

We do not provide official housing, however, local members sometimes are able to house out of towners. 

Members are expected to attend every rehearsal. During the winter, we understand that scholastic-based activities can and should take priority. Members are expected to  communicate any conflict ahead of time to staff. Once school is out, we expect members to honor their commitment and make Fusion Core the priority. 

If you are traveling long distances, please be sure to check weather and traffic reports each morning to  confirm whether or not you’ll need extra time to get to rehearsal. You will be able to find the contact info for the admin and staff on BAND, and you should always be communicating if you’re running late. We will worry if you don’t show up on time. 

It is so important that you attend all rehearsals and arrive on time. Our success is dependent on each and every one of you.

We use three services for communicating with members:

• BAND, a messaging app that will be the primary means of communicating with members, such as posting rehearsal information, sharing music and drill, doing polls and questionnaires, and assigning video assignments

• Remind, a text message-based service for communicating during urgent situations and emergencies

• Email, for financial invoices and other private communication

Active is the software we use for tracking attendance and member's financials.

Yes. Parents are encouraged to stay to watch and help if needed.

DCI All-Age is an all-age activity. The typical age range is 15 - 65. 

YES! Parents are encouraged to sign up to volunteer to assist the corps  administration. We are always looking for additional hands to help with feeding the corps, driving trucks, fitting uniforms, building props, running errands, etc. 

Parents are encouraged to attend the Member Experience Day. We will have a parent info meeting where you can learn more about getting involved.

Parents and guardians will have their own communication page and are encouraged to provide the admin with an email address and phone number to receive updates/messages.

Parents and guardians of children under 18 are required to provide their contact information and consent in order for their child to participate.

You may contact us at info@fusioncore.org or email the Director at  holly.marino@fusioncore.org.

Feel free to ask anything you want to know. The more you know, the better experience you will have!
