Chers Phans,
Salut! The Phantom Regiment is officially on tour! Today we had a very productive rehearsal day in Fremont, Nebraska, and are on our way to our next stop in Laramie, Wyoming. It’s hard to believe that spring training is over; it really flew by this year! We are very excited to be bringing our program to the West coast for the first time since 2012.
There has been so much excitement and hard work the past week, between filling and detailing our closer and cleaning other sections of the show more closely, the Phantomettes have been very busy! We were very bummed that our Dress Rehearsal show was rained out, but soon we will be at our first competition.
Today, we had rehearsal until the evening, and the whole corps made adjustments to the existing program to spruce it up a bit. The focus was on improving scenes one and three.
During morning block, the color guard was treated to a full dance block, which felt amazing because we all had bus body this morning. If you are not familiar with this term, ‘bus body’ is what results from the creative sleeping positions we use on the bus at night.
Afternoon block was longer than normal, so it was challenging to keep the energy up, but we worked together and pushed through.
BREAKFAST: French Toast and Sausage
LUNCH: Chicken Nuggets! (Happy condiment Monday!)
DINNER: Mexican Lasagna
SHOUT-OUT: The amazing sewing ladies for making us all look amazing! We have the best volunteers.
QUOTE OF THE DAY: “You forgot the pickles!”
FULL RUN COUNT: 3
Thanks for reading! À la prochaine!
