Colts 2010 Day 12

Today is Car Wash and Wal Mart day. Schedule and menu given to me was pretty brief so apologies for the lack of detail but I think you can get the flow.

Couple of things to note:

We moved all the picture Archives from years prior to a single link on the right. We will continue to post this years pictures in their own list (also on the right). Rod R just sent in a couple of links to May pictures below.

Mystique Casino has announced grant recipients for 2010 and the Colts are pleased to announce they have received funding for a newer 15 passenger van.

Colts 2010 day 7

Wow, It has been a week already!! Yesterday we had a donation of 130 bananas and fresh from the garden greens!! Awesome response to the Cooktruck Cam. We are going to attempt to broadcast more often. I have also gotten feedback that it would be nice if we could record the sessions and post them. I am investigating this. If anyone has experience with recording USTREAM Shows please let me know. Keep an eye on Facebook/Twitter for upcoming Broadcasts for now.

Blogger is having some issues

I will be posting today's Daily post as soon as possible. It seems Blogger is not accepting my uploads.

Intro to the newest Cook Truck Bloggers

Hi there! We are Joshua and Lindy Schroeder. We live just west of St. Louis MO. Our son is Jacob. He plays tuba and this is his first year marching with the Colts. He also plays guitar and harmonica and is in several bands as well as playing in church and school. He will be a senior at Marquette High School. We also have two other sons 21 & 9. This is our first exposure to DCI. Jacob introduced us to it about a year ago and boy are we amazed!!! We are looking very forward to doing our time on tour this summer.

 

Jacob	Josh & Lindy

We are looking for suggestions and content. If you want to see any changes or have anything you would like us to post just email us (email address on the right as well). Pictures, interesting things from tour, anything! We will have the birthday list soon so we will start incorporating this to the daily posts.

Colts 2010 Day 3

Bill Reports that they dodged the rain yesterday. Nice and cool today. It was fantastic to see the Full Ensemble under the lights last night. Reading a Colts Twitter Post it sounds like “Green” Rocks!!!

I put together a little map that covers the Colts Summer Travel - 7172 miles!!! And that is just the point to point  (as the crow flies) distance. Pretty impressive,

ASK - Pass along that there is a Phone number on the Cook truck Board that can be used to get information into this blog. Just send a text or Picture (MMS) with the info they want posted and their name/Instrument.
