Peace, Yo!

Patriot Band arrived at Miami sans luggage after blowing two tires on the choir trailor. Cheryl, Leslie, and Deven took care of the break-down while the rest moved on. Arrived, checked-in and got right to work. Guard is working on incorporating large red, purple and white flags into the production. Horn line worked on drill changes which will allow the 1st trumpets to be on the 50 for the company front. Several new horn moves and foot moves have been added. New faster tempo in "Carol" is eliminating foot problems. Other tempos will also be "goosed" a bit. Kids all working hard. Marched 'til 9:00 PM. Lost a couple of rookies to the pace of band camp but they all hopped back in following a break in the shade. Weather is reasonable for this time of year. Golf cart for staff errands has worked out well - thanks Randy Hunt. Tuesday schedule - company front work, music cleaning and tempo changes, working guard transitions and 3 square meals!
