Our GroupsMusicians meet for rehearsals on the second and fourth Thursday each month in the Fall and Spring. We practice twice a week during June(Tuesday and Thursday) for our Summer concert. Rehearsals are an opportunity for band members to play alongside seasoned musicians while practicing sight-reading in a light-hearted, supportive atmosphere. Music pieces of varying levels of difficulty are chosen to support concert themes. Musicians with a desire to play and a moderate skill level are welcomed to join us in presenting concerts for community audiences. There is no charge for membership and volunteers are provided a free band shirt. For qualified adults who would like to play but do not have an instrument, we have a loan program on instruments.
