Croy Silver Band

Upcoming Events

The band is currently rehearsing for a number of upcoming events. Please come along and support us where you can. Our engagements include:

Saturday 7th November - Borders Entertainment Contest
We are looking forward to the Borders Entertainment contest, run by the Scottish Borders Brass Band Association. This year, it is being held at Galashiels Academy. It is an all-day event and very enjoyable, with a wide variety of repertoire and talents on show. This year, every band has to include a piece with a "vocal element" in their 15-minute programme.

Saturday 21st November - Scottish Challenge Contest
The band is planning to take part in the Band Supplies Scottish Challenge Contest to be held at Perth Concert Hall on 21st November. This will be an all-day event, starting at 9:30am. Bands from all over Scotland will have the opportunity to choose a test piece to play at this contest.

Our December programme
The run up to Christmas is always a very busy time for the band and we are still finalising some of the details. Events will include:

our own Christmas Concert in Croy;
the Lights of Hope Carol Service in Glasgow;
the Kilsyth Community Carol service at the bandstand; and
various carolling sessions in the local community.

Check back here, or on our Facebook page, nearer the time for more information.

22nd August - Senior Citizens' Concert
Thank you to the Rotary Club of Kilsyth for once again inviting us to be a part of the entertainment for their annual Senior Citizens' Concert.
We hope everyone had a very enjoyable afternoon - we certainly did (and the refreshments that were laid out for us went down a treat too).
