Lee County Band plays Nov. 10 in Cape Coral

The Lee County Community Band will begin its 134th season with a lively, fun-filled, free concert on Nov. 10 at 3 p.m. at Cape Coral High School.
In keeping with tradition for the season’s first concert, director Richard Bradstreet has selected a program featuring spirited and patriotic American music by American composers and a salute to U.S. military veterans.
The 50-member adult band will perform six concerts between November and April. Programs typically include a mix of energetic marches, Broadway hits, old favorites, patriotic songs, and a sing-along with emcee and vocalist Norman Jones.
Band members are musicians from all walks of life – career musicians, amateurs, and folks renewing skills from years past – who reside in Lee, Collier, and Charlotte Counties. The band welcomes new members every year. The band rehearses Thursday evenings at St. Michael Lutheran School, Fort Myers. Musicians interested in joining may phone John Fenn at 239-454-6430.
Lee County Community Band concerts are free of charge (donations welcome), and open to the public. Additional concert dates are Dec. 8, Jan. 12, Feb. 9, March 8, and April 19. All concerts will be at Cape Coral High School, 2300 Santa Barbara Boulevard, one block north of Veterans Parkway, beginning at 3 p.m. For additional information, visit www.leecountyband.org
