Tuesday - Rehearsal

The plan was to let members sleep for as long as possible but everyone drifted down Bob Evans earlier than required. By 11am the two members vans were on the road for the Beavercreek Basketball arena. Whilst the guard was warming up outside, the support team started to piece together the floor that was in shipped over in 7 pieces. The floor crew were left screwing new tables together whilst Tracey S, Nicky D, Barry James and Andy S went shopping for food and paint. We got back from shopping to a very sticky rehearsal and quickly prepare lunch.


Rehearsal finished rather abruptly when the local basketball team came into train but luckily the guard had there best run this year. We stopped off at Walmart on the way back to get provisions and breakfast as we have an early start in the morning. A quick meeting in Rob's when we got back and everyone now getting ready for dinner.

Not a very exciting day but this was expected. Everyone is extremely tired but still very upbeat. We are now going to meet at 20:30 for dinner.
