Mr. Hinchiey now lives in Renfrew, Ontario, but has vivid recollec- tions of his time and •experiences in Seaforth. OUR BAND GARDEN PARTY JULY .28, 1921 r Our • Band Garden Party was held in Victoria Park. The .proceeds were to help .pay for the new Highland uniforms the Band was to .wear the following year. In 1921, Seaforth had a .good .band. It had been reorganized in 1920 after having been dormant for some years. Bill Freeman was Bandmaster .and ;he was well able to handle the job. He was a good musician and a elpiendid cornet ,player. Often he would conduct :the band with his left hand while ,playing the cor- net with his right. The 1921 band was built .around a •core of old .bandsmen who ;had splayed ;together for years. ,Included ,were: .dalton .and .Davie Reid; the Box -Brothers --Herb, Pat 4ind Ernie: ,;Bill, Hoag ,and ;his rson.-Percy I Tom .Scott; ,Mac McLeod; *falter -Robin- son :and George ,Reeves.

He had trained them all winter and by summer they were able to play out with the band. In 1921 there were few cars, no radio or television and no sound pictures. Men had time to play m the band. Practices were held every Tuesday evening for two hours and in summer the band gave a concert every Thursday evening from 8 o'clock to 10. Besides this there were many garden parties and socials, parades In order that the friendly staff at The Huron Expositor may enjoy the long weekend with family and friends, the office will be and other chances to play out so the boys had enough playing to keep their lips in shape. 1921 was the last year of the Citizens' Band. By special permission of the Seaforth Highlanders Regiment they had been granted the right to wear the uniform of the famous Seaforth Highlanders. These were ordered from Scotland and in 1922 when the ,band first appeared they wore their new uniforms. From then on they were called the Seaforth Highlanders Band, LOSED an MON1�� r ' s AUG ..'
