Despite only being active for half a season, International Corps & Ensembles, or ICE, is finishing with two corps in the top 6 of their divisions. Both Schism Drum & Bugle Corps and The Lean Mean Green Fighting Machine returned from 10 seasons of inactivity to lead ICE into FMA the finals triduum.

Schism posts strong scores in Music Ensemble, Color Guard, and GE Music that carry them into 5th place entering the weekend. Their show, "Little Pig Boy" features music from the Beatles ("Piggies"), Alan Jackson ("Where I Come From"), and the Mudbound Theme by Tamar-kali.

The LMGFM posts their strongest scores in GE Music and Visual bringing them to a 4th place finish entering the weekend. Their show, "Dreamland" features all original music, but is based off of an idea that dreams are the expression of our emotions that we experience throughout each day, and attempts to show this visually and musically.

Also this season, ICE has grown by 4 new corps: Blue Spirits, Kentucky Cavalry, Sheriffs, and The Blue Devils. All were division 3 corps that hope to compete at higher levels next season! If anyone is interested in joining a rebuilding league that is focusing on becoming more active and involved in the coming seasons, consider ICE!
