SECOND STRAIN: Donnie Jenness, 15 years later

A remembrance from my ancient blog, of color guard designer/instructor Donnie Jenness. He led indoor guards up and down the eastern seaboard, and was the guard instructor at Temple University and the University of Delaware. He was “tough love” personified. He passed away on March 21, 2009, at the age of 46 – fifteen years ago, this Friday.
