WDPR / WDPG

Yesterday we made another visit to Carillon Park to watch the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra perform their annual Memorial Day weekend concert.  Dayton's Classical music station WDPR was once again in attendance (I grabbed a fan from them two years ago.)  This time they were giving away pens and magnets.  WDPR t-shirts were thrown into the crowd and one actually landed right at my feet.  The lady in front of me really should have caught it but it bounced right to me.  I ended up giving it back to her and she then gave it to her daughter.
