KP MIDS at US OPEN

<p>Hi All, Just received a phone call from my 1/c son. He is at the US OPEN with about 50 other mids. It was very hard to hear him because he was listening to Earth Wind & Fire perform, but tomorrow the same Mids will return to do the Opening Ceremony for the event. All of the mids involved worked during Indoc so I guess this is a little thank you for all the summer vacation they gave up. Anyway, word from him is that they should be on the USA network doing the opening ceremony. My TV listing shows 11AM and 7PM. He says they have to be there by 4PM. I guess I have to set the record button for all day. So any parents out there whose Mid worked Indoc tune in tomorrow.</p>

<p>Our son said he would be there also.</p>

<p>My son will be there also. Here is a link to the ceremony. It will be shown live tonight on the USA network. Not sure what time, but the TV guide says "tennis" at 7:00 pm and since the Mids don't leave KP until 4:00 I assume it's safe to set the Tivo for 7:00 :). </p>

<p>My Mid told us last week he will be attending the US Open. I guess this makes up for the pay they were promised and did not get for being DI's.</p>

<p>Son called and said they are marching in with the flag at 7:15 pm eastern time.</p>

<p>Forander....I believe the DI's finally got paid.</p>

<p>When and how much?</p>

<p>has anyone found any photos or videos of the mids at the US OPEN?
(there is one photo on the US OPEN website that shows the top of the flags)</p>

<p>son was also in on this.</p>

<p>Not sure how much they got..I believe it was whatever was agreed upon in the beginning, but they got their checks on the weekend of August 16th.</p>
