Today's News


Happy Birthday to Kaitlyn Summitt, Tom Mueller, and Kendall Kruse.

The Colts open tonight for the Charlie Daniels Band as part of the center stage main concert at the 2nd Annual "America's River Festival" to be held at the Port of Dubuque.

There's a food drop today in Dubuque. I'm sure the cooks are ready for a re-supply for the last week of cornfield, since they were down to green beans and mandarin oranges. The first competition is just over a week away.

The performance last night in Delhi with the Colt Cadets was great. "It was really nice to see a performance in uniform this early in the season," Jody says.

The corps got to Dubuque Senior just fine early this morning after the Wal-Mart stop. It was a short night for the cooks with the bus trip from Delhi, the shopping stop, and getting set up in a new spot. It was raining this morning when the cooks got up and was "still kind of drippy" by mid-morning.

Note on the cooktruck from Gramma Mary: "Colts, I've never been so proud to be a part of you as I have this year."

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

The second week of cornfield is quickly coming to an end and I want to say EXCELLENT job to the cooks Jody,Vicki,Patty,Delora,and Tom. Plus the local volunteers who stopped to lend a helping hand.. Thank You for all your hard work.
