Today's News
Thanks to Jody G and all her crew for a great week!

It's a gorgeous day today in Madison. "Just perfect," Rod says. They are in a beautiful, shady spot with the cooktruck. They can hear the brass and percussion, but can't quite see them. Rod says, "Close enough to hear Dr. Beat, anyway."

Note on the board: If you need shako repairs, see Lisa.

Last night's concert with the Dubuque Symphony was great. The cooks thought they were going to have to go to Plan B when it started pouring rain before dinner but it stopped as quickly as it started and they served out of the truck as planned.

The Colts played their inaugural parade tune "76 Trombones" and got a standing ovation at the concert. Then they joined the symphony on Mars and Jupiter, the 1812 Overture, and Stars & Stripes Forever.



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

Any mayflies?
As a true tradition hunting for creatures from the mud after Symphony night ....

Still remembering them while hunting them down with a vacuum cleaner.
