Bekah Blanchard joins The Cavaliers as a dedicated member of the drum corps community since 2016. After serving as a drum major for the Columbians Drum and Bugle Corps from 2016-2019, her leadership and commitment were recognized when she joined the Blue Knights Drum and Bugle Corps as a drum major for 2020 and 2021.

In this capacity, she was instrumental in planning and executing successful first-time tours for the organization. Additionally, in 2022, she contributed to the Blue Knights' operations as a Tour Management Assistant, supporting logistical and operational needs.
