Band Award Winners

The Band Award Ceremony was a great success, Fort Mill High School Marching Band played beautifully outside the Mansion House to welcome guests arriving to the event. Each marching band received a star participatory award, after which the main awards were announced by Dr Joseph Ryan, head of band adjudicators. Directors of the bands and representatives attended, relaxing after the ceremony with a pint of Guinness pulled specially for each representative by Lord Mayor Naoise O’Muire at his house bar.
