The leadership & management teams are making the final preparations for France 2010.
The Dorset Youth Marching Band will set off from Britain's shores on Friday 28th May and head down through France to Saumur where we will stay in a near by town until heading back to Dorset on 4th June.
Whilst there, we will have plenty to keep us busy:
- We'll meet with friends from years past, including l'Elan Saumurois, who we first met during France 2007 and our friends from France 2006, l'Avenir Allonnais.
- Host a BBQ for freinds new and old
- Spend time in Saumur, playing, shopping and sightseeing.
- Visit the very impressive Doué Zoo whilst out there too.
- and plenty more in between!
This years trip promises to be great one! Be sure to keep checking the website for updates!

The Dorset Youth Marching Band of Wimborne wish all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. The Band have had a very busy year, with ups and downs for all. It's hard to beleive that 11 months ago, we were performing in the first event of the year, Massed Bands in Concert, and now here we are at the end of 2009, heading into a new decade.
On the 19th May 2009, we were officially awarded title of Wimborne Town Band and can't end the year without saying a massive thank you to the people of Wimborne. We are very proud to be the Town Band and thank Wimborne for the support we've received since DYMB formed. We are playing in Wimborne throughout the Festive Season, so be certain to keep an eye out for us!
Merry Christmas from all at the Dorset Youth Marching Band! |
