The Hudson Valley Council Band is chartered to the Wappingers B.P.O.
Elks Lodge as Venturer Crew 2609. It operates under the guidelines of the Boy
Scouts of America and is in Nimham
District, of the Hudson Valley Council. Its objective is to meet the six
career experiences of Venturing and crew activities: career, fitness, social,
leadership, service and outdoors.
"The goal is to encourage children to develop sight
reading and music ability," Mr. Richards says.
"It helps them in school and builds up their playing
ability."
Recruiting efforts are under way for new members ages 14
and older. If you play an instrument and want to join the
band, please contact either Mr. Vincent Richards or Mrs.
Althea Richards.
Band membership is coed.
Membership to open is anyone 14 years or older and has
completed the 8th grade.
Adults are welcome.
A Minimum of NYSSMA Level 2 or higher is recommended.
Contact Vincent
or Althea Richards for more information.
