The Easingwold March and Deportment Contest took place on the evening of 28th June 2008. Despite two bands having to pull out a great evening was had by all, with no rain to spoil things for once.
The Music Adjudicator on this occasion was Nigel Horne and the Deportment on this occasion was adjudicated by the scoutmaster of the Easingwold District Scouts.
This change was prompted by the late withdrawal of Sgt Major M E Topping due to illness.
