WHY WE LOVE BEING PART OF YACCB:
"We are fulfilled when we are involved in something bigger than ourselves." - John Glenn
"This is the second year I’ve attended the Festival and I definitely will participate again. I enjoy learning from conductors in any setting. Every director brings something new and I love getting a new perspective! I also enjoy meeting other community band members and making new friends!" - Rosemary D.
"The directors chosen are always very good.
The music is always sent to rehearse at least 1 month in advance
The event is extremely well run.
A wonderful chance to play with new musicians, and perform in a concert setting."
- Marsha G.
"It was a great day to be making music with fellow musicians and sharing the music making with the audience." - Dale S.
"I enjoyed the experience of playing in the concert. The music selections were excellent and the participating bands were outstanding! " - Lee T.
"It was a Fun day filled with Wonderful Music. Like minded musicians playing & enjoying the day, together." - Clyde G.
"Playing in the Three Rivers Festival Band has become an enriching tradition for me. The challenge of preparing for a concert in a very limited amount of time with a community of musicians that forms and then disbands until the next year is rewarding and lots of fun!"
- Karen L.

WARM-UPS
During the pandemic shutdown, two of our members, Nancy and Tom Davidson, decided to make creative use of their downtime. They agreed to write and share poetry without rules; it did not have to rhyme, it did not need punctuation marks, it did not require a specific form or meter. Each one penned their heart-thoughts with nothing but the words. They shared them with each other. This one is Nancy's favorite that she is graciously sharing with our band. Enjoy!
The hat choice is blue or black and the visor is black. The order form contains all sizes and prices and includes orders for shirts, hats, visors, sweatshirts, and jackets.
