About the event
The Meire Grove Community Band is the oldest active community band in the state. Originally organized in 1883, 2025 marks 142 years of continuous band performances. Their current roster of active members is about 65, and there are three generations from some families performing. The band plays marches and other typical concert music, but always has a few “surprises” in store. Find out more.
