(news item submitted by P. Arthurs) The junior and training band will both be held on Saturday mornings from
10.30am until 12 noon in the War Memorial Hall on Lancasterian Street,
Carrickfergus (beside the fire station). All newcomers are welcome so if you would like to start a banding career
or are looking to further your existing one then come along and join us.
JUNIOR BAND RETURN AFTER SUMMER RECESS
Saturday 16th September at 10.30am will see the return of the junior band
from its summer recess.
This year the band is creating a new section due to the high intake of
young people and will take the form of a training band.
This new training band will be for beginners who are at the first level
of their banding career and will enable more time to be spent teaching
the fundamentals of brass playing and theory while allowing for the advancement
of the junior band which, up to now, has incorporated all ability levels.
These changes represent a significant step forward and will enable competent
handling of the high volume of members.
More details can be found in the <Junior
Band> section of this website.
