For example, anyone here remember Magic in (I think 1999)? Busses broke on tour, director used her personal credit card to pay bills until it was maxed-out. The Corps was stuck for a few days - IIRC some Corps fed them a time or two as some busses were literally stuck & members aboard were without food. A big mess all around. So, no, don't address it after the season. Live within your means. Even worse then that... Quote ...while on a 1982 tour in the United Kingdom, the corps' funds were embezzled, leaving members and staff stranded and financially insolvent in England. The Corps made it back home with the assistance of the US State Department for members under the age of 18, and all others paid their own way or received assistance from a handful of very generous supporters. The airline involved filed a receivership action, and several alumni stepped in to negotiate the release of title to the Corps' assets.

Terri Schehr Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I guess I’m going to Indy after all. What I don’t do for this old man. 🙄 We’re flying into Cincinnati from Punta Gorda on Allegiant. I guess the fares weren’t too frightening. Rented a car and it wasn’t too scary bad. Got tickets from the Cadets and Cavaliers. Thanks to them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we’re going on a cruise with my Sis and BIL to Key West for a few days next month and a trip to South Carolina in June, I had to be fair to him.

Not too bad, just a few road construction delays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can have chili at Camp Washington before we go to Indy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were just there for a couple of days a few weeks ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in South Gulf Cove in Port Charlotte. If you went to Gasparilla Island or Boca Grande, you drove right past my house. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had dinner one evening at a nice shopping area on the water. We then drove to Fort Lauderdale for a 9-day cruise on the Celebrity Reflection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
