Description & Services
| Information | We are Canada's oldest Fire Department Band and we welcome members to come and be a part of our band to rehearse, perform, and enjoy the music. Experienced members are always willing to help out newer members learn the ropes. We work hard and take pride in what we do, but we don't forget to have fun!! Most members of the Band own their own musical instruments, although the Band will attempt to provide instruments when needed. The Band plays a variety of music from Classical to Modern. The Band plays as many as 30 concerts and parades in a year, including our popular SUMMER CONCERT SERIES at Shipyards Landing in Bridgewater during July and August. We ask that members participate in as many events as possible. Interested in booking the band? Please contact the Music Director (contact information listed above). Q: Do you have to be a Fire Fighter to belong to the Band? A: No, some members are active, past or honorary fire fighters however, it is not a requirement of the band. |
