Band members are now selling itickets to anyone willing to purchase them, which entitle the holder ‘to free admission to all performances of the Legion Band. Cost of the ‘tickets is whatever the individual feels he should contribute to this rworthy cause, woe Ue The sale of these tickets does not mean the band is to begin -charging a fee for their The band are quick to admit the ticket# are only means of securing donations. By contributing to the band, however, residents are actually pur- chasing for the whole H le and price- Jess, Through their ibuti it a share in astlegar’s musical culture and in the civic. pride and community spirit which only a town’s own band can give them. _ The wonderin performances the Legion Band has given for the in the past, and their constant will- ‘ingness to tena any function they are asked to, should be more than is administered on behalf of the .R.C.
