Re-launch of Thurrock Marching Brass
Plans are well underway to bring back to the marching band/drum corps arena the band that was admired by so many: the Thurrock Marching Brass. Aimed at bringing something back for the youth of Thurrock, the effort will see many new youngsters that have never been involved in marching bands/drum corps before.
To keep people informed of the activities going on a TMB Re-Launch Newsletter has been produced, which will be updated monthly so that everyone can see what is happening. Leading the effort, past member Paul Morgan (1975-1989) commented "Those of us that have been through the Thurrock ranks will know just how important the band was for us all, and it is my sincere hope that we can bring new youngsters into the Band to start their journey on doing not only themselves, but the name proud."
It has been 21 years since the band was on the field of competition."It is with great pride that we start the journey in earnest to bring her back to life again", Morgan said. "We know there will be significant challenges ahead, and we know that the social environments have changed dramatically over the years, but we have many that have stepped forward and are prepared to take on that challenge, and so I look ahead with optimistic eyes for the venture to succeed."
Updates on the re-launch will be published on www.thurrockmarchingbrass.org.
