DRUM CORP
"Although Drum Corp International (DCI) has little to do with architecture, I cannot deny how important it was in making me the passionately driven individual that I am today. Although it was definitely the most difficult activity I have ever done, it was also one of the most rewarding activities." In 2006 and 2007, Chris was part of a drum corp called the Sacramento Mandarins. He spent in the end around 1000 hours practicing from November to August traveling across 15+ states all for one 12 minute show. Thanks to the Sacramento Mandarins Drum and Bugle Corp, Chris gained Determination Character Development Improved self-confidence and self-esteem The value of teamwork The value of commitment to a purpose Responsibility, integrity, sacrifice and excellence The privilege of meeting and working with people with diverse backgrounds and origins |
2007, Chris Welton
