Today's News
It's a bright, sunny day in Dubuque. A good day to be a Colt.

Lots of rehearsing -- sectionals, stretching, music -- set for today. And a full corps rehearsal scheduled for OUTSIDE late this afternoon. Whooooooo!

Lots of volunteer projects scheduled for today too. Kitchen truck had lights last night and the water is ready to be hooked up. An all-systems test will be done this morning after it's finished being de-winterized and then, we're ready for the road. Frozen food was packed in the truck's freezer last night (meat on the left -- pork, chicken, beef top to bottom; bread and veggies on the right; corn dogs piled high in the upper corner) and we started putting on paper goods. Snack last night and breakfast this morning, but we'll switch over to cooktruck operation later today. It's a good day to be a Colt.

Thanks to all the volunteers who are cooking, sewing, shako fitting, cleaning, building, patching, remodeling, and other stuff this weekend. We appreciate every minute you are putting in. A special thanks to Lori and Pat for showing up early last night to get the food drop organized and ready to pack away.

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