This past weekend, the Marching Illini Trumpets unofficially began the 2007 season with the first of two summer sectionals. About 30 members made it to Champaign where they rehearsed music, reviewed some fundamentals, and spent time getting to know each other. It was a great time for all, and the section leaders felt very pleased with how it went.
Special thanks to Renae for hosting the party afterwards. The food was wonderful, and it was nice reliving some of the best moments of 2006 with the highlights DVD.
Our second sectional will take place in Frankfort on July 14th. We hope many of you can make it out there for our last meeting before camp begins in August. There's also a rumor that Matt's side yard may just be spray painted for a game of Whiffle Ball if the weather's nice and the parents don't mind looking at foul lines for a week (and yeah, it's been done before).
One last thing: if you've got an idea for the blog, run it by the section leaders. It was good last year, but we can do so much more with it.

Malbert, you forgot to mention about how the home team "Bruisers" as we dubbed ourselves came back in the bottom of the ninth and won the game. It was almost a Cub like victory. Too bad those White Sucks can't pull off those end game miracles.
