Spread the Word!

by Ron Goldenberg

The West Island New Horizons Band is gearing up for its fall session, which will start on September 22nd. So, dust off your instruments and register now! Invite all your friends to register too!

In addition to welcoming back current members, the band hopes to attract as many new members as possible for the new session in order to reverse the decline in membership caused in recent years by this pesky pandemic. To that end, we will be advertising in the Suburban newspaper for three consecutive weeks starting on August 24th. We have also produced a small flyer and business card that will be left in strategic locations on the West Island. These will be placed in libraries, music stores and other locations where we hope to spark the interest of new musicians. A sample of the flyer is shown below. If you would like to distribute some flyers, please let us know.

The best advertising, as always, is word of mouth. We are counting on you to spread the word! Tell your friends, family, neighbours and colleagues to join in the fun of making music together. If you can, please upload the flyer on your social media accounts to help with this effort.

The search continues for a new Music Director, but we are happy to confirm that Christian has agreed to continue as Music Director until we find a suitable replacement.

We look forward to making music together soon. Please register at www.westislandnh.com
