NEAT STORY FROM A COLT ALUM!

  • Yesterday at 5:30am the Terrier Orion rocket went mach 4.1 and hit an altitude of 380,000ft. My research payload and Colts triangles experience 0 gravity for 116 seconds as the rocket and payload floated in space and then came back down to earth.
    I'm working on a scientific payload for NASA and I had extra room in our designated canister to send up the triangles. Both Triangles did return back to earth safely and are back with me.
    I want the current members of the Colts to know about this. Not for the sake of tooting my horn, or how awesome it is; I want them to know that the values and work ethic that you obtain from the Colts carries on with you for the rest of your life. Had I not marched with the Colts, my work ethic would have not got me to where I am today.

COLTS LOVE MAIL!!!!

Please remember NOT to have anyone send anything via UPS, Federal Express, or any other carrier except the US POSTAL SERVICE. Also, never have anything sent directly to our housing site.

Address all mail as follows:

GENERAL DELIVERY
HOLD FOR COLTS DRUM & BUGLE CORPS
(Member Name)
MAIN POST OFFICE
*ADDRESS
*CITY, STATE, ZIP CODE
*Use the mail drop location for the last two address lines.

Now- July 12th  General Delivery
Hold for Colts Drum & Bugle Corps
(Member Name)
P.O. Box 515
Dubuque, IA  52004-0515

Stopping in to see the corps?? When you visit the Colts on tour, get to our housing site as early in the day as you can to give us a hand. And, when you come, please consider bringing 300 homemade cookies (your kids favorite is great) and/or fresh fruit or vegetables for 200!  Feel free to bring bananas or any other fresh fruit! They love it! 

We need your help for tour! There are still spots on the summer calendar that need to be filled! Parents, if you are able to help during the summer or have any questions, please contact Bill Symoniak by calling 651-470-3553 or email colts.cooks@comcast.net.
