Another fantastic performance from the Silver Band at the Buxton Contest today, retaining all 3 trophies won last year, Section winners, Best euphoniums and NWBBA shield. Our MD Jason Smith showed his versatility today, switching to the Principal Cornet role in the absence of Mike Murfin and we are grateful to Dennis Hadfield for stepping in to cover the MD duties. Next stop Holmfirth next week!!

Whilst the weather was kind we also had issues with a coach breakdown early on but our driver Rob (Robs Travel) was superb and was able to rescue the situation and ensure we still arrived on time!!
