Band ready for return to Scottish Championships

The Band has finished its preparation for its return to the Scottish Championships today following the dissapointment of having to withdraw last year.
The Band hopes that the direction of Ray Farr will produce a performance which will secure a high enough placing to retain its status as a Championship section band.

For this contest the Band welcomes two cornet players making their debut for the Band - Gemma Proudfoot and Andrew Wright.
