On Thursday 30th and Friday 31st March the Band played for the graduation ceremonies and parades of Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT). Officials were piped into the three ceremonies at Napier’s Municipal Theatre and the Band led everyone in the parades up Emerson St to the Sound Shell. Click here to view video.
We played for the graduation ceremonies and the parade through Napier for our local polytechnic, EIT.
Our youngsters competed at the Highland Games in Hastings at Easter.
Welcome back to the new year for the band.
Just confirming that due to EIT’s operational requirements we will be at the Band Rooms at Nelson Park for the next two weeks (Mon 1st and 8th Feb).
Two important dates for you to note on your calendar – Art Deco weekend (Sat and Sunday events this year) and our concert at the Sound Shell on Saturday 27 February – the opportunity to use the Sound Shell arose and so we will be playing at 12noon to entertain the public. We’re hoping for a big audience as that’s the day of the Mission Concert.
Don’t forget that you can get a list of upcoming parades and events on the calendar link on this website, meanwhile our first practice is on Monday 25 January at EIT.
