Deputy Twirlers
Deputy Drummers
Our Story
The Deputies Baton & Drum Corps was formed over 35 years ago by Linda Jones and was originally known as Dillon's Deputies. We share the same dream as Linda did all those years ago. We are a very diverse group with members from across Lorain County which provides opportunities to make new friends from other schools and communities.
​
The Deputies have traveled and competed in many parades in the state of Ohio and beyond. We are proud to hold state titles from the King's Island competition and many titles from Twirl Mania International Championships competition at Disney World in Orlando, Florida. We have participated in the Orange Bowl Bowl Parade; Miss America Parade in Atlantic City; the Independence Day Parades in Washington D.C. and Philadelphia; The Canton Hall of Fame Parade; Disney World Christmas Parade; Cedar point parades; Cavs games; and many more. We enjoy traveling with the corps and offering new and exciting experiences for our members and their families.
​
Many of our members have moved on to do great things after leaving the Deputies. We are proud to have a feature twirler at West Virginia University, an Assistant Drum Major at The Ohio State University, a member of the Howard University Drum Line, a drummer for a major rock band, and so many more success stories. Our twirlers have also achieved many individual state, regional, national, and world titles. Many Deputy alumni attend universities, trade schools, become successful business owners, and all-around good citizens.
