Hello Madison Scouts Alumni!

The MSAA will be holding a Member Meeting on November 2nd, 2025, at 7 PM CST.

Election season is here!

The Madison Scouts Alumni Association is looking for dedicated leaders to serve on the MSAA Board of Directors. This is a great way to give back, strengthen alumni connections, and help drive the future of our group. If you are interested in contributing your skills and knowledge to further the mission of the MSAA please fill out this application by Sunday, November 30, 2025.

Congratulations,
ladies and gentlemen! You have just completed the journey of a lifetime with the Madison Scouts Drum and Bugle Corps. As the final note fades on your incredible age-out performance, you stand on the brink of a new, enduring chapter - one that welcomes you into the Madison Scouts Alumni Association (MSAA).

This is more than just a group; it’s your lifelong link to the Madison Scouts legacy. The MSAA is the bridge connecting you, the newest class of alumni, to 78+ years of fraternity who have marched before you. We are here to extend the spirit of fun, camaraderie, and support that defined your time in the corps and to ensure that powerful connection endures.

Staying Connected in the Off Season

Just because the summer season is over doesn’t mean the Madison Scouts' spirit has to pause! Many alumni keep the energy alive throughout the year, whether it’s grabbing coffee with a fellow Scout, marching in alumni parades, or even hosting virtual game nights. For example, Jorge Franco is hosting a watch party for the Houston Texans vs the Tennessee Titans game on November 16th in Houston!

Staying connected to our roots in the Madison Scouts is a great way to remember how much we appreciate the corps, even when our marching days are behind us.

We’d love to hear how you’re keeping your connection to the corps alive! Do you get together with other alumni in your city? Have a special off-season tradition with your section? Please share your stories and photos with us! We may feature them in a future newsletter to inspire others to stay connected.

Hello Madison Corps Alumni members and other interested alumni,

First, we would like to acknowledge that almost all of the registered Rose Parade members who responded to our last email are sticking with us, which makes us excited to move forward with our future event exploration. We have gathered five unique opportunities that we would like to gauge your interest in participating in, starting in 2027, with a first international performance opportunity potentially taking place in Ireland in 2028. The survey is open until December 31, 2025.

Note: We may even do more than one event, so please select all ideas that interest you.

Below are the five ideas for future projects, along with their corresponding links for you to conduct a more in-depth review:
