One of the Band's most visited locations is the town of Yeovil - we have forged a close relationship with the Corps there over many years and it was great to be able to visit again. As usual, we had a very nice buffet tea before the festival - perhaps that is why we keep going back!!

The programme was well received by a very good audience - more chairs were being put into place right up until the start of the festival. It is always good to get favourable feedback and on this occasion the local Bandmaster - Nick Stokes - who was helping out the percussion section on the night - reports that so many people have already said what a fantastic time they had and how it is "always a great night when the Boscombe Band visit". That makes it all worthwhile, as does the fact that more than £1000 was raised on the evening to support Yeovil Band.
