Latest News from the Band

2010 National Scout Service - Windsor Castle

National Scout Service, Windsor Castle

Following our MOT Annual Inspection, we have been invited to send a Corps of Drums to the National Scout Service at Windsor Castle for St George's Day on the 25th April 2010.

And in 2011, if all goes well, the whole band may be able to attend.

The rest of the band will be playing at the Enfield St George's Day Parade, with former EDSB drummers Jim Heatley and Mark Ewington coming back to help us out.

About the band - NOW RECRUITING!

The band is a traditional style corps of drums and consists of two drum majors, four side drummers, one quad-drums player, two bass drummers, two cymbalists, two glockenspiel players, one xylophone player, one marimba player, twelve buglers and one bass bugler. We are currently recruiting for the bugle section of the band.

Do you run a Scout Group or Guide Company, in Enfield? We can run a whole evening for one of your sections, you can win from being able to sit back and have a laugh, and we can win by attracting new members to the Band. Your young people will learn drill and marching (useful for St George's Day and Church Parades), and get the chance to play a tune on a glockenspiel, bang the drums and blow a bugle!

Contact our Bandmaster, Richard Bennett, to book the Band for an event, or ask him for more information about joining us as a playing member (if you are under 14, you would need to be a member of the Scout or Guide Associations. 14 or over, you can be a Band only, Explorer Scout).
