Town Silver Band

For the third year in succession the Buntingford Town Band have entered in the junior section at the National Band Festival at the Crystal Palace.

The Festival was held on Saturday last, and the Buntingford Band journeyed to the Palace by charabanc, leaving Buntingford at 6.30 a.m.

The Championship was won by the famous St Hilda Colliery Band, who recently gave two delightful programmes of music in Buntingford. 

The Band, therefore, hold the thousand guinea challenge trophy which was on view in Buntingford early last year.

The St Hilda Band has many friends in Buntingford and district, and their success has given much satisfaction.

Up to going to press it is not known whether the Buntingford Band were successful in the competition.
