SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM ED MORGAN:  It's Badger football time again, and that means Band Donor Recognition Day, which means that any member of our club can purchase 2 tickets for the game on September 10 which also allows 2 field passes for the Half Time show-down on the field with the UW Marching Band. This opportunity is available annually but only for 2 tickets on a first come basis. Tickets are $42 each (hey, college football is big business!) I must know by Friday Aug 26 so contact Ed Morgan directly if interested.
