The Spring Concert

A great afternoon’s entertainment was provided by the band and other artists.  Typical of the feedback is this email from a fan: “I really enjoyed the concert yesterday and especially the second half of the concert with the music selection and Tracy’s song honouring Taradale’s soldiers.  The pipes were amazing, very exciting to see the young musicians and can they pipe and drum!  Congratulations on a varied and inspiring concert.”

We appreciated the support of A Cappella Fellas, the social group from the City of Hastings PB, Napier Boys High School PB and of course our own All Stars.
