Tampa Bay Thunder Drum and Bugle Corps

Tampa Bay Thunder Drum and Bugle Corps was a competitive marching ensemble based in the Tampa, Florida area. The corps competed as a junior unit in Drum Corps International (DCI) Division III and II from 2000 to 2002, and later re-emerged as an all-age corps in Drum Corps Associates (DCA) from 2011 through 2013.
History
Tampa Bay Thunder's inaugural competitive season was in 2000, when they entered the DCI Division III circuit. At the 2000 DCI Division III World Championship preliminaries in Westminster, Maryland, the corps placed 14th with a score of 79.55.
After a period of inactivity, Tampa Bay Thunder reformed in late 2010 as an all-age corps and began preparing for entry into DCA competition. In 2011, they made their DCA debut and placed 10th in Open Class Finals with a score of 78.95.
A 2000 DCI.org blog post recounted Tampa Bay Thunder's performance at the Orlando Citrus Bowl, which was delayed due to rain.
