These three are: ‘The first public performance to be put on by the band in 1908, was supplying the music for the Old Boys RKeunion, which was held in the present fairgrounds. The band played on a temporary stand, that was erected especially for the ocâ€" casion just south of where the it recentlyâ€"formed, and therefore not had no uniforms, and readers can well imagine what a motley crew they must have been. However, this was not to be for long. The late M. F. Rittenhouse, of Vineland, engaged a room at the Couse House one day and the hndtoolmhamtâ€"nydun- nading him on St. This eviâ€" dently impressed Mr. Rittenhouse so much that, after he left, withis outfitted the band with thirty new uniforms at the expense of Mr. Rittenhouse. In the future, Mr. Rittenhouse became a sort of their gratitude for this magnifiâ€" cent gesture, the band asked him if there was anything they could do for him, and upon his request they played annually at a bandâ€" whell, built by him. in Victoria Mdmfi.‘ml‘"“’ certs in June, July August of each year for the following six or seven summers.

They playe to both Vâ€"E and Vâ€"J day celetntions and serenaded this ‘Ton of Grimsby in the night of Victry in Europe until well past thehour of midnight, After the wr, the band entered competitâ€" in again at Toronto, but in 1947 ad 1948 they took only fourin pize. This is understandable, beâ€" cause the war had taken many members from the band; coupled with this fact was the lack of reâ€" hearsails due to the war. Then, in ugust of 1949, under the leaderâ€" Aip of William Kiddell of St. Cathâ€" aines, the band took third out of saven bands, after working only two ad a half weeks with the new Inthe years gone by, Beamsvilie Ban: has had many leaders and a nention of these is a must in the writing of the history of the orgmization. The first leader, Mr. Jas. Zimmerman, was replaced shorty after 1908 by Licutenant Stiwes, of Hamilton. Harry Stares, a bnther of Arthur was next. and healso was the leader of the @1st Highlanders Band at that time. He stayed for a short time and then came Jolin Holden, of St. Catharines. Three other Hamâ€" llonm\ then held the reins of the bandfor a short time. These were, respe:tively; . Charles Wanklin,| Arthur Darrow and Thomas Andâ€" rews. One of the betterâ€"known leadrs the band had in the years just previous to the war, and those just after entering it, was Mr. Fred Timms, formerly of Beamsâ€" ville and now residing in Niagara Falls. Mr, Timms was also the Diâ€" rector of Music for the Public and High Schools. It might be mentâ€" joned that, while acting in this cap» actity, Mr. Timms led many fine choirs and glee clubs in this distâ€" rict, that brought back much favâ€" ourable publicity to the commun.â€" ity. Other leaders of the band at some time or other were Dave Nelâ€" ligan, who took the band to Toâ€" ronto on three different occasions; Gerald Marks, who also took the band to Toronto three times. nnd‘ haroid Cummings . of HMamilton. Joe Lomas, also of Hamilton led the band when they captured the Conn ‘Trophy in 1935. Robert Edâ€" munds, of Grimaby, Harold Rowâ€" |houom. Toronto, and W, I. Baxter, of Fort Erie all led the band at one time also. In 19041 or 1942, Mr. Rowbottom fostered a Junior Band in Benmsvillie, and some of the members of that group have since graduated to the Senior Band, aiâ€" though the Junior Band is now not cprrating. The last leader before the preaâ€" ent Mr. Kiddell, was Charles 1. Talman. "Pete" as he is affectionâ€" atdy called, is probably without a doubt the most wellâ€"known of all of them to the people of this distâ€" ric. As we mentioned before, Pele Bamsville Dairy. They used the Kichenette of the l‘(l Schoot unil the new Fire Hall was built, ar| it was only through consider« ate effort on the part of some of th members, that they now enjoy ths location, Trough its long history, the Band ho struggled, in many cases, for tw v-r{ existence, and it owes the present prominent place it holds in our community to the courage and foresight of those hardâ€"work« ing members and leaders of yeat« eryear, who spent tireless hours of practice, time and patience for the good of the communty, with little or no financial recognition from the Village. Gradually, however, the people in our section of the County are rea« Izing the benefit of uch an organ« ization as the Beamaville Band, nd in recent months, the Viage cunell, the Chamber of Commerce wl the Clinton and Louth Agr« eyural Society have all" given y,swnable amounts to . the band fothe purchase of music, uniforma &4« more important, for the com» ption of the new Bandstand at the grgrounds. If the band is given contnued pport by these groups and also by local citizens of the community it can do naught but imjrove on the already fine record it has left behind it in former years was oné of the old originals who griw up with the band, and he has in 111 likelihood, done more for the bant, insofar as organizing it and heping it together than any other leater, Pete has accompanied the band to Toronto for every contest ty played there, and he led the han} for many years prior to mov« ing to 8t, Catharines, He is still anactive member in the band and canes up every Thursday night to rewarsals., The band now has its headquart« en in the new Fire Hall, and it is hwe that every Thursday night tiny guther to practice.
