Chicago!

Revolution YPA

Today the corps traveled to Chicago for a few hours of free time. Some of the kids went to the Navy Pier, while others stayed downtown. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the sites of Chicago as well as some famous Chicago Pizza! It was a nice break from rehearsing and performing and gave the kids and staff some well deserved fun time. One of the baritone players needed an explanation between White Sox and White Socks! The weather was very comfortable, unlike our 100+ degree days we've had here in Texas.

The corps is now on the buses and headed for Kansas, where they will stop for the night and rehearse tomorrow. They will be making their way back to Texas in the next few days for a performance in Houston next Saturday.

Don't forget to send those tour fees in! The corps still needs funds to complete the second half of the tour season. You can send fees or make a tax deductible donation by clicking on the "DONATE TODAY" button on the right, or mail your donations to Revolution YPA, P.O. Box 15950, San Antonio, TX 78212

Awesome performance!

Last night the corps received a score of 69.9 at the Spectacle of Music in South Milwaukee. The show continues to get better and better.

The corps is rehearsing today at Cudahy High School, and will leave this evening to head to Cedarburg, WI for the show tomorrow night.

The weather has been great, in the 70's during the day. Lake Michigan is just a 100 yards or so away, and the corps will be taking a walk later today around the lake so they can enjoy more of the scenery.

South Milwaukee, WI

Location: Cudahy High School, 4950 South Lake Drive, Cudahy, WI 53110

It is definatly good to be back as school we know. This will be a return trip to this school location and we will spend the next two days here with the Pioneer Drum and Bugle Corps. The show tonight should be a good one as we will once again get a new panel of judges to give us thier impressions of our show. The next six days travel times will be relatively short and a welcome logistical relief.

Show Site: South Milwaukee High School Stadium, 901 15th Ave. South Milwaukee, WI 53172
