In one unforgettable summer, three young men commit themselves to one of the most demanding youth activities in the country -- World Class Drum and Bugle Corps:

A veteran drumline member steps into a leadership role for the first time;

a 15-year-old trumpet player from Texas becomes the youngest member of the entire corps;

and a color guard member fights to finish his final season after receiving a life-changing diagnosis.

Often referred to as “marching band on steroids,” Drum and Bugle Corps pushes young people to extreme levels, both physically and mentally -- all for one 11-minute performance.

All three young men march with the Madison Scouts from Madison, Wisconsin.

The strong brotherhood of this all-male organization helps them through their struggles and celebrates their triumphs.
