Today's News
Hot and humid! Many staff and members felt last evening’s performance was the best this year! Yet the judge’s assessment did not seem to match. During an all corps meeting, this was discussed. Taking a page right from the book of “all we can control is how hard we work at perfecting what we do”, the members decided to make a slight scheduling change over the next few days.
Tomorrow is a free day and Tuesday was scheduled as a laundry day. In order to create additional rehearsal time, the members decided to combine laundry with their free day. This reduces their free time tomorrow, and provides a full, uninterrupted day of rehearsal on Tuesday. I couldn’t be prouder to be a Colt!! – okay, I know I am really not one, my son is, but it sure feels like I am!
The cooks really won’t be going to Disney World, but apparently Frank will be grilling some of his famous steaks for the cooks tomorrow!
Thanks to Brock L, a van driver for this past week, who is leaving today. With the cook shortages, he really pitched in with all the food truck activities, in addition to driving all night. Many thanks to Brock and everyone else who pitched in extra this past week!!!
As always, check colts.org for the latest official word on tour news, housing sites, mail drops, or other corps information.

Rod, Thank you for letting us know about the members decision to incorporate more rehearsal time into their schedule thereby reducing their free time. They continue to amaze me in so many ways! Thanks to you and David for these daily posts and to the awesome volunteers of the cook truck for taking such great care of our kids. (Have a great week Jody!) I had a wonderful experience working the truck. Becky K
Rod,
Thanks for the update.
It doesn't surprise me at all that the corps would choose to give up some free time to gain the rehearsal time. The Red Team is a group of strong kids with a plan to succeed.
