With less than two weeks to go until our Marines’ Weekend we need to do a final push on tickets. At the moment there are still over 60 unsold tickets for the formal concert on Saturday and we have only sold 110 for the Friday’s evening with our own Swing Band and the Marines’ Dance Band (in the past we have sold 200). From a finnacial point of view we are hoping to break even at the moment whereas we had hoped that the weekend could raise around \u00a31.5k towards a tour next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please could I ask that you try and encourage as many family\/friends\/colleagues as you can to go to one of these events (if they are not going already)? Due to security we cannot publicly advertise Friday’s event so we really needs the parents of our musicians (past and present) to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally if anyone’s business\/company etc would like to sponsor Saturday’s evening meal for the Marines (at a cost of \u00a3642.85<\/strong>) in return for an advert in the concert programme please get in touch asap.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" With less than two weeks to go until our Marines’ Weekend we need to do a final push on tickets.
