Thank You, Chester Lions!
Saturday 7th Jan 2006, late evening
The Band is proud to announce some fantastic news - the Chester Lions have decided to grant us the incredible sum of £1270.34!!! The vast majority of the money will be used by the Training Band to purchase new percussion instruments, with the remainder being used by the Main Band to buy music. For a self-supporting band such as ours, the importance of a grant of this size cannot be understated, particularly in terms of enabling us to continue to train instrumentalists of the future. The Band members wish to thank the Lions for their generosity, and they look forward to holding a 'thank-you' concert in the very near future at which a formal presentation can be made.
