The Frankston City Band won its first contest in 19 years when it won
the D grade section of the Latrobe Valley Eisteddfod held in Traralgon on
September 2000.
In a spirited performance the band played the march "The
Medallion", "Leningrad", "The Bass in the Ballroom"
and "The Lincolnshire Poacher". The result was close with the band
edging out the previous winners by just 3 points.
Needless to say, the band was ecstatic with its win and is looking forward
to a busy contest schedule next year.
Other performances in recent months have included the launch of the boating
season at the Sandringham Yacht Club, the Frankston Christmas Parade and
Carols by Candlelight at Chelsea and Frankston.
