Day 3 - Tuesday

It was starting to rain as we headed out to breakfast at 7:00am. The rain continued until around 10, so the kids went back to their floors/rooms. Some chose to take naps, while others played games. Some of the kids made up their own games, such as, Texas Hold-Em with gummy bears, key races to see who could get in their rooms the fastest, Russian roulette with a nerf gun, trying to hit a target by batting a tennis ball with a plastic bottle, etc. We have creative minds in band! When the rain quit, rehearsal was held until lunch at 12. After lunch, the winds were broken up into sectionals until a much-enjoyed popsicle break for everyone at 2:30. Following that, it was back to rehearsal until dinner. Tonight's dinner was special, especially for the meat-eaters of the group. The chaperones held a cookout for all 295 people here. They do the planning, shopping, and grilling, as well as doing set up and clean up. Choices were hamburgers, cheeseburgers, veggie burgers, hot dogs or veggie dogs. Also served were chips, carrots/broccoli and dip, a cookie and pop. It was back to rehearsal after dinner, with the entire band eventually putting it all together...Movement 2 is looking good! Lights out at 11:00pm.
