Colts had a great performance at prelims. They are working hard and have an amazing attitude! The smile on their faces was very cool as they received their triangles...always a moment that is never forgotten! Weather has been great...quite cool in the morning, but turning into a beautiful day! We are very proud of our COLTS!

Great show again last night; they seemed to have turned the corner. The kids are dealing with heat very well.

The nuggets served at meal #2 came from the Cadets as a "thank you" for us helping them.

Thanks to '10 alum for the donation of gatorade, chocolate and laundry "stuff"; as well as, the '82 alum for the bananas. Donations of any kind or size are always much appreciated.
