Today's News
Thanks for all the donations! You guys always come through when we ask. Got donations yesterday of bananas, grapes, and oranges; corn and fresh-picked blueberries; and one of apples and more bananas. Got a total of 4 crates of banans yesterday. Thanks to everyone who donated this week. And all season!

Today dawned overcast and there was a brief rainshower just before breakfast, but things had lightened up and the corps was outside doing visual rehearsal when I got this morning's call.

For the non-vets, Greg talked to the corps last night about what to expect when they perform in Allentown tonight -- about the crowd, which is super-knowledgeable, the stadium, which is an awesome place to watch a show, and just the whole atmosphere about performing where there's such a long history of drum corps. One of my personal favorite places to watch a show.

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