Formally known as Twilight Optimist Drum and Bugle Corps and the
Twilight Knights Drum and bugle corps. TKDBC is proud to announce new
programs and a new home location and name. We are now based out of
Jacksonville / Orange Park, FL. We are a non-profit, 301c, group


We are a Competitive corps that participates in parades, exhibitions
and annual events for our supporting communities. Now under the
direction of Jeff Mesker. TKDBC will field for the first time since
2000. In 2010 the corps plans to compete in Small Drum Corps
Association (SDCA) and Drum Corps Associates (DCA). We have future
plans to return to DCI as well. A summer tour is scheduled for 2010.
In order to meet the challenge of a successful tour, The corps is
expanding its' transportation and equipment assets. We currently have
one 47 passenger tour bus, and vans. We are purchasing two additional
47 passenger tour buses, a staff bus and equipment and food trucks.
In
addition we have switched from G Bugle horns to brand new B flat
horns
for 2010. So bring along your friends who play brass or a woodwind
instrument. We have a very talented and dedicated staff of
instructors
who are more than willing to teach. New uniforms are in the plans for
2010 as well. And for the percussion section we will have all new
Battery and Front line equipment. Sponsors are being lined up now!!


We are very proud to be ACTIVE and serve the community and everyone
who loves the world of Marching's Finest!!! We are pleased and proud
