Christmas Wishes from Whitwell Brass Band
22:47 - 25/12/2009
Whitwell Brass Band would like to wish all of it supporters a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
2009 was another busy year for the band. Over 1000 miles has been covered performing in concerts and contests in places as far afield as Skegness, Matlock, Bedworth, and for the first time in over half a century, the National Finals in Harrogate.
The first few months of 2010 will be busy for Whitwell Brass Band. No sooner will the New Year hangover be cured, they will be preparing for the lucrative Butlins competition in Skegness. After then, the band will concentrate on trying to regain the Midlands Fourth Section Regional Trophy in Bedworth in March.
Next summer will be busy with concerts all over the local area. Keep an eye on the website to see where the band will be playing when.
