Today's News
Don't forget that the cooks are asking for donations of fresh fruit.

The call this morning was a bit incomplete, since the cooks had 40 minutes to hit the ground and serve breakfast this morning. Weather pushed back the show time last night by about an hour and a half, which pushed back departure, which pushed back arrival, etc.

The cooks were bracing for "another hot as a pistol" day today in the Midwest. The kids are at the high school. The cooktruck is at the nearby recreational park. "I wish I could go to the waterslide," the head cook says.

Last night's Meal 4 was disrupted by the storms too. Three corps -- the Cadets, the Cavaliers, and the Colts -- came together for a joint "snack" after the Toledo show. The Cadets had been in Michigan and had lost all their Meal 4 prep to storms except brownies and ice cream, so that's what they brought to the party. Along with a kick-ass sound system that got everybody moving at snack.

The Cavies served 2 corndogs to each member of all three corps and the Colts kicked in chicken nuggets and chili (it had turned off cool after the storms.)



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