Euroa Citizens Band entertains Kelvin Grove

THE Euroa Citizens Band has been in formation for over 130 years. Their members came from Euroa, Violet Town, Shepparton, Tatura, Mooroopna and Strathbogie. On Sunday, October 20 the band entertained the residents and visitors at Kelvin Grove Village in Nagambie. They played tunes from popular musicals, entertainers and pop songs. The appreciative audience sang along to the evergreen melodies. This event coincided with the retirement of Village resident Diane Grant's 60 years of organising community, church, Lions, RSL, Village and various major activities. Diane said: “I wanted to go out with a bang, and the band has provided that for me." "It was great having them entertain us so well on a lovely Sunday afternoon," she said. "Thanks to them for their great contribution to our Village fun. "The afternoon tea was plentiful and the raffle and lucky door winners went home grinners. "Thanks to all who supported the event in anyway and who made the afternoon a memorable one."
