Today's News
It's pouring down rain in Platteville. Baaaaaaah! "That's really nothing new," Carole says.

The cooks grilled the pre-cooked brats and dogs for the members last night. They bought the grill about 5 p.m., had it assembled and were feeding the kids by 6. Colts cooks are amazing.

Speaking of amazing, so is the show. Every report I've heard from people who have actually seen the performances is just glowing. Carole says the first time she really saw the show was last night. "It is just amazing," she said.

The cooktruck crew sends out a big 'thank you' for the donation of grapes and oranges. Nice change from bananas and watermelon. Please keep the donations of fresh fruit (including bananas and watermelon -- nothing against bananas and watermelon) and fresh veggies coming. Makes a great complement to the other great things the cooks are making for the corps.

There was cake and ice cream for birthdays yesterday. No birthdays today, though.

Send good thoughts for a dry spell late afternoon and evening so they can get the performance in!

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

Heads up...

Join the DCI fan network...is is worth every penny. Do it thru the Colts site (as I think they may benefit from that). I have seen videos from the first weeks of cornfield...and they are great. Down the line - some of the bigger venue events will be on-line.

Check it out...well worth the money...
