The George N. Parks Drum Major Academy is a nationwide summer academy for high school drum majors and majorettes. It was founded in 1978 by George N. Parks. Held at various locations around the United States, by 2010 the academy drew up to 3,000 students each year. Since its inception, nearly 70,000 high school and college students have attended its summer programs and received instruction on how to be more effective drum majors and student leaders. George Parks, a standout drum major in high school, began teaching drum majoring when he attended a drum major workshop at West Chester University in 1971. He served for the next two years as a volunteer assistant to Dennis Rhoades in this program. In 1973, after becoming a student at West Chester, Parks was officially hired as a staff member in the program and two years later he was promoted to head clinician. More information...
