Blue Devils C at a glance
BD Performing Arts traces its foundation to 1957. The organizational history describes the establishment of a younger C bugle corps in 1973, when the junior drum-and-bell ensemble was converted into B. This makes 1957 a parent-organization date, not a simple claim that the present C program began in its current form then. The organization’s later program structure includes A, B, C, Special Needs Guard and other ensembles, serving different needs rather than a single compulsory progression. Based in Concord, California. It competes in the Open Class category.
