It is the 7th day of 2017 and we had to make the trek, through bad snowy road conditions, to Princeton to play with the Band for the men's and women's basketball games (Men lost, but Women won!). 1/7/17 was circled on the calendar for a while, we knew we would be needed for both games since it is still Winter Break and students would be away. We had a few stalwart students tonight, and over 40 alumni of the Band and we sounded great! It is inspiring for me that, when Greer puts out a call for assistance, the Band Alumni Community responds and comes from as far away as CT to support the Band and Penn Athletics. Add in the wintry conditions today, doubling the travel time for most of them (and a late bus showing up for the folks leaving from campus) and the inspirations are even stronger. GO QUAKERS!
