Rhyl Youth Marching Band

  1. FAREWELL ANDREW

    Another sad day for the band yesterday.
    Andrew - Tenor Horn - informed me that he no longer wanted to play with the band as he wants to pursue new found interests in learning the piano and drums and feels his brass playing days are no longer giving him any satisfaction.
    My thanks to Andrew for the way he has conducted himself at band and the commitment he has given.
    I am sure that you will all join with me in wishing him all the best for the future and assure him that we would welcome him back with open arms should he wish to rejoin.

  2. DUCK RACE - DYSERTH

    Thanks to all those who turned out today (August Bank Holiday Sunday) to play for the Prestatyn & Rhyl Lions fund raiser - The Duck Races at Dyserth Waterfalls.
    We had to play for a very long time during the afternoon and I was very pleased at the way you all held up and continued to play to the very end.
    A Gentleman, Mr Hogg, gave us a cheque as a donation to the band because he thinks we are a good young band with a very nice sound. This is the second year running that Mr Hogg has made such a donation. Is there anyone of you who would like to write to Mr Hogg a letter of thanks for the donation. I did it last year but it might be a little more pleasing if it came from one of our young members.
    Thanks again for turning out today

  3. GRONANT STREET FETE

    Thanks to the 12 members who turned out today (7th Aug)to play at the Gronant Street Fete.
    A somewhat unusual venue for us to play at but I know that one or two people did listen to us and I received a couple of nice thank you's.
    Thanks again

  4. PRESTATYN CARNIVAL

    Thanks to all who turned out today for the Prestatyn Carnival.
    Although we sadly missed more cornet power I feel we gave another good account of ourselves and hope that we may have inspired a youngster or two to come and find us to join.
    Sorry about the one or two spots of rain but I feel we look better without coats.
    Thanks again.

    • It would have been tooo hot with coats on. The rain was fine as it wasn't cold. I have learnt to wear a T-shirt under my shirt though just in case it does rain

  5. Coronation Gardens

    Thanks to all those who turned out yestaerday (Sunday 18th July)to play at the Coronation gardens for the "Rhyl South West Residents Association" open day. It would appear that our performances were enjoyed by the public there but the main bonus is that we may have attracted three new recruits to the band.
