The Training Band enjoyed their annual celebration and presentation event on Saturday. The guest of honour was Councillor John Swift who has been very supportive of Thurcroft
Welfare Band and the Training Band in particular.
The band were all wearing their new jackets part funded by a grant from Councillor Swift and entertained him and others with a short concert that included The William Tell Overture, Francis
Clifford's Film Suite and, a training band favourite, Another Day.
All members of the band received a certificate in recognition of their efforts in 2014.
Individual award winners were as follows:
Best Newcomer - Maddie
Most Improved Player - Ben
Bandsman of the Year - Lucy
The Bass Section took away the Section of the Year accolade.
Lucy and Finlay were also congratulated on their recent examination successes, both achieving distinctions in Grade 4 Cornet and Grade 2 Tenor Horn respectively.
Following the celebrations the Training Band moved onto Tickhill Garden Centre where, along with the Senior Band, they entertained the shoppers!
