Today's News
Brock and Debbie surprised Carol L with cake for her birthday last night and hung around for a while. Judy and Tom H also visited, and Judy helped in the kitchen truck. Thanks to all the visitors.

We had a couple of offers of fruit donations yesterday and thanks for them. Keep in mind that fresh fruit and veg are a constant need throughout the summer. We're feeding about 200 people a day (counting a full corps, staff, drivers, and volunteers) so plan accordingly.

The staff did a mouthpiece boil and water bottle wash last night. The staff took care of the whole thing so the cooks could concentrate on, well, cooking. Cleaning is good for health.

Overall, everything's going well with the corps and the volunteer operation. A handful of people showed up Wednesday to watch the corps work out and there were about 15 yesterday. So the interest in South Beloit is growing and they expect even more people tonight for ensemble.

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