Cowichan Drummers Make Some Noise at the Olympics

VANCOUVER - It's not hard to find Vancouver Islanders at the Olympics, taking in events, and helping out as volunteers.

But teenagers from the Cowichan Valley are making noise for their communities and infusing the games with their own infectious beat, as they bang the drums on the streets of downtown Vancouver.

The DDT Drumline is the perpetual pride of Duncan BC, but during the 2010 Games, they are also the toast of the Olympic city.

DDT is made up of a dozen drummers, the youngest, just a dozen years old.

The artists have been brought to the games by a Christian faith group known as More Than Gold.
