Hi WASWE members
A couple of changes were made to the schedule for the next few weeks.
1. Next weeks’ rehearsal (28th June) is cancelled. Our directors are unable to attend, as are a number of members of Swing Band so it would not be viable to do this instead.
2. The next rehearsal will be on Monday 12th July for Concert Band.
See you then!

Just a reminder that rehearsals begin again on Monday, 18 January 2010. We will be playing for the City of Bayswater’s Australia Day Citizenship Ceremony on 26 January, and there will only be two rehearsals before that date so attendance is greatly appreciated.
Happy and healthy New Year to one and all!
