All Saints Church Fete

We played incidental music at the Church Fete on 21st June. It was a glorious sunny day although a little cool in the shade.  The Fete was well attended and the band's playing was well received.

"Holbeach Town Band provide a musical highlight"

"Band hits right note in aid of church funds

Holbeach Town Band played at All Saints' Church summer fete and helped raise hundreds of pounds.  Father John Wickstead said that the band's two sets proved to be the highlight of the event, adding 'It was a very enjoyable day.'

Stalls and games covered the courtyard between 9.30am and midday, raising about £650.  The cash is not ear-marked for anything in particular but will help to boost general church funds."

 

 

Holbeach Tractor Rally

Amother hot day on 22nd June and we were playing at the annual Holbeach Tractor Rally.  We were placed in a prominent position next to the main thoroughfare (and conveniently close to the beer tent!!).
