A Fitting Send-off at Easingwold
Saturday evening at the Easingwold Deportment Contest saw the Band parade around the village square to “National Emblem” followed up with a stirring performance on the stand of “Ravensworth”.
In a strong field that included several Championship and 1st section bands, Backworth came 10th out of 17, losing out narrowly out in the 4th section category. Our 10th place put the Band above Northumbrian Water Ellington Colliery and Broughtons, amongst others.
The evening represented a fitting send-off for Colin Harris who stands down as Musical Director, having served the Band as MD, contest secretary, arranger, player, and in numerous other capacities. Colin’s decision pass the baton on comes after several successful and enjoyable years, leaving the Band stronger after his recent 5 years as MD.
We sincerely wish Colin every future happiness and warmly acknowledge his significant contribution to Backworth Colliery Band.
