Yeovil on the move

After years of high rent Yeovil Town Band has found a new home — and cheaper refreshments...

Yeovil
 

After many years of paying high rent, Yeovil Town Band have decided to move.

Extensive search

Following an extensive search and advertising campaign to find a suitable practice room, the band was approached by the Yeovil EX Service and social Club (formally the British Legion), who offered us the use of thier function room along with storage facilities.

Thanks

Yeovil Town Band would like to thank YESS who worked alongsiode the Band with hammers and nails to create the new storage areas as well as helping with the move.

The only downside is the band are expected to endure the hardship of alcohol at a low price after rehearsals, but hey, this is a small sacrafice for the sake of good music!!!Yeovil Town Band

Downside
