This summer was a very busy one for Stacey Ballard. He left Benton on May 24 and returned on August 10. He did not have a weekend off or even a day off. He traveled, by charter bus, over 14,000 miles. He worked every day outdoors, rain, or shine. He ate prepared food off of a food trailer four times a day. No, Stacey did not join the military- he marched in a drum corp. Actually, in the Boston Crusaders Drum Corps from Boston Mass. He was an elite member of Drum Corps International (DCI), in the World Class Division. Read more... |
