2025 - Dorset Photos

Band trip to Dorset - 13th-15th June 2025. Staying in Swanage, the band performed two concerts, one at the Swanage Bandstand on Saturday afternoon and a second at Christchurch Bandstand on the way home on Sunday. The weather was stunning, with only a few issues of blustery wind whilst playing. 'Chairgate' was averted by members bringing foldable chairs at the last minute. The first evening was a meal in the Black Swan and the second evening was a fish and chip supper followed by a quiz in the Loft Community Hall. All fantastically organised by a great sub-committee.
