HIGHWORTH Silver Band's Summer Season ended in September with a concert in the town gardens, Old Town, Swindon. The crowds were superb this year.

All concerts were well attended and despite the rather wet summer, all park concerts were held in bright weather. The band also participated in the Highworth Festival 2000 celebrations, which they enjoyed.

Over the past few weeks, the interior of the band's hall has received a face-lift. New players have joined recently, several being very experienced bandsmen.

As the Christmas season approaches, the band is looking forward to being out and about in Highworth playing carols.

The band will attend the Remembrance Day parade and service on November 12. For more information, please ring Mark Cooper, Musical Director, on (01793) 762994.
