Chair Article July 2026 - The summer is in full swing!

If you missed it, the Madison Scouts debuted their 2026 program, “MadiSpin” at the historic Breese Stevens Field. The production features music from Pat Metheny, Shubh Saran, Michel Legrand, and Joachim Horsely & Camille Saint-Saëns. The show has callbacks to many classic Madison moments, motifs, and drill moves that are sure to make alumni cheer! I think Rumbacabre could even become a NEW staple for the Scouts.

Now that the DCI season has begun, there are new pictures, clips, discussions, stories, and fundraisers happening almost every day! If you aren’t in the MSAA Facebook Group or following us on Instagram, you’re missing out! Be sure to connect with us so you don’t miss anything the MSAA is doing this summer.

It is hard to believe, but it's been 20 years since the Madison Scouts Alumni Reunion Project shook Camp Randall Stadium. We would be remiss if we didn't take advantage of this opportunity to celebrate the spectacular accomplishments of two decades ago. It's also a perfect occasion to catch up with old friends who shared this once-in-a-lifetime experience with you.

Although the focus for this gathering is on the Madison Scouts Alumni Reunion Project, all alumni, family members, and friends of the Madison Scouts are cordially invited to attend.

The vehicle for this event will be a banquet featuring a great meal, a nostalgic audiovisual presentation, and plenty of time to interact and enjoy others who share a common bond. The date is Saturday, July 25, 2026, and the location is the DoubleTree Hilton Madison East Hotel.

'Spring Training'

The corps section leadership moved into Madison on May 18th, and spent the week in sessions at the MYArts Center with Mark Waymire (Program Coordinator), Sean Phelan (Staff), and Donnie Ross (Perc. Caption Head). Content was primarily centered around the concepts of excellence, engagement, and accountability. The leadership team also spent time doing community service by cleaning McPike & James Madison Park(s) -- with the underlying messages being -- 'leave it better than you found it' and to see themselves as stewards of something much bigger than themselves.

The Percussion & Color Guard moved into Greenfield HS (Milwaukee area) on May 22. They rehearsed at Alumnus, Pastor Nathan Pratt's (2010-12) church (Mt. Pleasant Lutheran Church) in Racine on May 25, before making their way to Wayland Academy in Beaver Dam for rehearsal on the 26th.

The brass moved in on May 27th. At the time of this writing on May 31st we're preparing for our first full ensemble rehearsal of Part 1.
