Well the busy time of the year is with us again. We’ve already had caroling at tesco and an early concert but last Sunday 7th dec was our very own concert. Held at the Conservative Club in Lostock Hall. We had a capacity audience of over 120 people who enjoyed our music making. Father Christmas made an appearance and mince pies were served at the  interval.    In addition to senior band our Youth band played a short spell of about 15 minutes, displaying their new purple polo shirts – they looked very posh. Thanks to Mr and Mrs Green for your generous donation.
