- Jan 21
- 2 min read
Dear Troopers Callback Candidates and Families,
After continuous monitoring of the situation and active consultation with the DCI Weather Team, as well as coordination with multiple drum corps organizations operating in the Dallas–Fort Worth area, we have made the decision to cancel the January Callback Camp scheduled for January 23–25, 2026.
The State of Texas has issued a Weather State of Emergency for much of North Texas, including the Dallas–Fort Worth region. Forecasts currently indicate prolonged freezing temperatures, significant ice accumulation, and widespread hazardous travel conditions, with substantial impacts expected to air travel, ground transportation, and regional infrastructure throughout the weekend.
This decision was not made lightly. We have remained in direct and ongoing communication with high-level weather professionals to evaluate timing, severity, and risk. Based on those assessments, canceling the January camp is the most responsible course of action to ensure the safety of our members, staff, and families.

It is always a relief to find a resource that explains these procedures without assuming the reader already has a background in the subject matter. The layout allowed me to jump to the sections I needed most without getting lost in the broader context. I decided to visit website portals for my own account shortly after finishing your post, and it saved me a fair bit of frustration compared to the last time I tried to manage my settings. Is there a specific support channel you would recommend for people who encounter persistent login issues, or is the standard help desk generally the only route available for resolving those specific problems?
Safety comes first in situations like this, and the automatic transfer to the February Garland camp is a helpful update for attendees making new travel plans. play wacky steps

The weather emergency sounds serious; hope everyone stays safe during this time. random state generator
For a casual game, eggy car does a great job of creating tension. You’re always aware that one wrong move could break the egg, and that keeps every second engaging.
