This crazy thing called Drum Corps

Yesterday afternoon at the Colts center, Greg officially kicked off the summer with a very motivational talk; one that only Greg could deliver. If you've never been around for that, try to make it next time; it's amazing. Even I left feeling like I could leap tall buildings if I wanted it badly enough.

Toward the end of his speech, he recognized the adult volunteers sitting in front of him for all of our efforts, and the kids gave us an immediate standing ovation that seemed to last forever. Well, I can tell you that not many of us had a dry eye after that. It's truly an honor to work with such a great group of adults and the most amazing kids anywhere.

Most people don't understand what Drum Corps is all about; they think we're nuts. We know better!

Even though we all know the kids appreciate our efforts, I wanted the many other volunteers who were not able to attend yesterdays meeting to receive an ovation too, VCT style.
