2027 MDC Scholarship Program

Drum corps is expensive. Between camp fees and tuition, the cost of a season can keep talented musicians off the field, including students who have already earned a spot.

March Drum Corps (MDC) was created to make the activity more accessible. We connect students with experienced marching arts instructors and provide scholarships to students who have earned a contract with a drum corps but need financial assistance to participate. Scholarships help cover camp fees and tuition.

We put money into the scholarship fund through our own programs, too. A portion of every lesson fee booked through MDC goes directly toward student scholarships.

The rest comes from supporters like you. Our goal for the 2027 scholarship fund is $5,000, and every donation helps a contracted student afford the opportunity they've worked hard to earn.

If drum corps has been part of your life, you know what a season can mean to a student. Help us get more of them there.
