Wow! We’re on the internet! Again!
Welcome to our site, dedicated to the musicians of the Marion Concert Band. Our web presence is a relatively new development, depending on your opinion of MySpace.com. To set the record straight, we’ve been around in one form or another since 1961. Even before someone (Al Gore? Leonard Kleinrock? J.C.R. Licklider?) created the World Wide Web.
The various tabs on our site are intended to be self-explaining. They introduce you to our group, provide a little of our history, and information how to contact us.
No musical site would be complete without a listing of our Events and Performances. These will be updated as time goes on. You will quickly notice that our members are involved in many musical endeavors in the area, and beyond. We like to think our group is special. Our musicians don’t just play music; they enjoy it, and seek out opportunities to share live music.
The last tab to mention is one of our most important: Sponsors. Historically we have solicited and received sponsors for the summer Concerts in the Park series, held at the Erickson Memorial Pavilion in McKinley Park on Sunday evenings.
Various groups perform there each Sunday evening at 7pm during the summer months. Attendance at the concerts is free, although donations are accepted to offset expenses of the scheduled performers. The exception is the Marion Concert Band, which donates its time and energy for the project.
If you are interested in sponsoring this series, or another performance, please check that page for further information.
We invite you to take a look around. Bookmarking us allows you to easily check back for updates. If you see something you like, great! If you’d like to see something added, we’d like to hear that too.
See you at the show!
