Hi,
I hope everyone enjoyed their Memorial Day weekend. A huge thank you to those who represented the Westport Community Band so well and to Sue Schaefer for coordinating!

(Thank you!) Please pay attention to them as you would Sal and listen to their perspective and notes on our music.
We will also hold our annual meeting on Monday. We have board members up for reelection and have also received some nominations. It is not too late to nominate someone (or yourself). Please let me know if you are interested or discuss with your nominee and you can nominate during the meeting.
