Today's News
The corps arrived at 5:30 AM. The kids got almost two hours floor time, but no rest for the cooks; they stayed up and got breakfast ready while the kids and staff slept. I asked Jack a silly question - "Is it hot there"? Why YES, Rod, it is!!!!

We're in Lilburn, GA today, a suburb of Atlanta.

Last evening, the rehearsal had to be suspended for 30-45 minutes due to thunder and lightening in the area. They lost most of their audience, but resumed practice after the threat was over.

Thanks to Bobby and Mark T. for the donations of gatorade and bananas.

John and Suzie drive.

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