Oh what a night! Our First Band Christmas Party

Oh what a night – our first Christmas Party!

12th April 2016

A true first for Shepherds! This year marked the bands first ever Christmas party – and what a party it turned out to be…

The final survivors of the night


The party itself was hosted after Christmas in January to allow all our lovely members a well deserved few weeks off and really got new year off to a cracking start. Held at the York Sports Club on Shipton Road over 100 members of the Shepherd Brass family turned out to celebrate the successful Christmas concert season. There was a full buffet, dancing, party games and a very cheap bar, so naturally the night was a huge success – even the elusive Mr Wilton was spotted on the dance floor!!

A highlight had to be when our wonderful Youth Band MD Mr Craig Brown showcased the skills he gained during his time working for Royal Caribbean and ran cruise ship party games! Everyone got involved and it added so much fun to the night – so thanks a lot Craig. 

Don’t they scrub up well?


The evening was so successful that we’re already looking at booking the same venue for this years Christmas Party – so watch this space!
