Today's News
The corps arrived at 8 AM this morning. Cooks got busy right away while the members got a little floor time. The mountains are beautiful, although the corps slept as they drove through them!

Staff was pleased with the show last night; much better than the night before. Additional changes were made to the show last night, with more to come. Way to go Colts!!!

Jack wanted to send a personal thank you to Lori C for the food drop yesterday – 285 cases of food! How they got all that loaded with only four of them, in the rain, while continuing to serve and cook, I’ll never know. Way to go cooks! And Jack jokingly wanted Jodi to know that he may have used some of her food as it was the last to enter the freezer – no worries – lots of chicken nuggets left!

Thank you to those who recently dropped off donations at the cook truck: cookies, fresh fruit (apples, oranges, and grapes), and Gatorade. Also thanks to the Colt Cadets for donating 5 bags of already cut fresh fruit!

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

I so can relate to having only four people and getting a food drop in the rain. Ours came between 6:30 & 7:00am JUST BEFORE BREAKFAST. This was in Platteville the first week of cornfield. Patty Tobin & Debbie Lowman probably remember it well - Patty cooked breakfast while the rest of us dealt with the food drop. If I could have been there to help Jack and the gang,I would have. It's tough without those extra people. I miss all the kids, hope you have great shows and see you at finals....Luba

Jack,
I only ordered the food......
I had nothing to do with the rain.

Wish I could have been there to help.Since Jack will still be on the cooktruck(That's why I call him Super Jack)when I get back on next week he can make me do double the work.
