Today's News

The annual Memorial Day parade and concert are Monday afternoon, a treat for the city of Dubuque, parents, volunteers, and just plain fans. It's a break from show prep for the corps and a good chance for them to get to play in front of an audience. And it's fun for us to clap, cheer, and cry for them as the 2006 tour really does kick off after the parade.

Great show, Colts! We love you!

As always, check colts.org for the latest official word on tour news, housing sites, mail drops, or other corps information.
