The plan was to return by 9:45 pm but it ended up being 10:30 due to on-site delays and and extended performance by the (very good) U of Toledo Band tonight at Chelsea.   The kids presented themselves, their city, and their school so well in Chelsea..  I am so proud of them.  Their performances was first class as was their deportment all night long.

But again, I apologize for the lateness.  The late end to the event was as much a surprise to me as anything.  

Everyone - congratulations on a great day.  It was hot and it rained for 10 minutes but it was a great success.  Today's band run was the best of the season so far.   Time to relax and bit before Monday's practice then Wednesday's road show at Chelsea HS!

The band traveled to Anderson Elementary school today to participate in their annual Constitution Day ceremony where we performed the National Anthem, the opener to our fall show, and the THS Fight Song which the little ones really seemed to enjoy.  : )
