Thank you Tesco Cleethorpes for giving us the opportunity to entertain customers at Christmas. Thank you all the band members and helpers who came along
Our last engagement of 2016 at the Royal British Legion, Waltham. The band played to a packed audience in great voice for White Christmas. Even Brian's jokes got better (debatable but good will to all men). Thanks for the delicious pie and peas Julie. From all Cleethorpes Band, 110 in the carol book, "We Wish You a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year"
The presentations were made at our St Andrews concert on Saturday evening and the winners are.......
The Bill Tansley Memorial Cup is voted for by the Training Band players, well done Scott you've made stunning progress.
The Owen Harden Cup won and richly deserved by Sam Smith for all his hard work in and out of the band room.
The Presidents Trophy this year awarded to John and Ann Clark. The rock of our bass section has had to retire from playing although he misses it terribly. Ann has cared for our music library during every rehearsal and her tea and biscuits are legendary. We thank you both for your tremendous support and love for the band and each other.
Great to see our President, Jim Pullan, at tonights rehearsal. Jim had some very encouraging words and news for the band. Many thanks to Jim, Mary, Richard and everyone at Kingsway Printers for the tremendous support they have given us.
This weekend the band played carols and Christmas selections to entertain the crowds in Humberston and New Waltham. The children sang and recalled the Christmas Story, the band played and the lights went on! Happy Christmas everyone.
