As we begin to wind down from the hustle and bustle of rehearsals and concerts for our holiday break, the WCB would like to send out a very large thank you to all who supported us by attending our concerts, donating to the Salvation Army and our local food drives. We would also like to share our congratulations to the winner of our annual hockey ticket raffle, drawn by Dave Babbitt at our December 3rd concert. Congratulations goes to Marcia Simpson, the lucky winner of the hockey tickets and cash, with a total prize value of $1200.00.

We are so very excited to share with you that the Wallaceburg Concert Band will be presenting two Christmas concerts this December.
