How do you join the colonial williamsburg fife and drums?
You can sign up your children when they turn 7 by calling the Colonial Williamsburg operator and asking for the fifes and drums. They'll be put on a waiting list and will get a call when they are 10 or 11 to ask if they are still interested. If they are still interested, they will possibly visit before entering the corps as a recruit, and will start classes sometime October. If you're signing them up, keep in mind that you should live near Williamsburg, as they will need to attend classes twice a week or more for the seven or eight years that they will be in the corps.
