The Guardians present a discussion on what actually makes a drum corps open class, and what the difference is between this distinction and other levels of the marching arts.

The Guardians interview a band director, addressing students marching drum corps in high school and their eventual return to their scholastic program.

Guardians discuss their hiring practices, what they look for in support-staff roles, and how they utilize them. They also discuss the importance of having a diverse staff to meet the needs of a diverse membership.

How Guardians cultivate their version of a “family” atmosphere, why it is okay to try and reinvent the wheel sometimes, and how being “different” plays into the future goals of the drum corps/collaborating organizations
