Drumaheagles thanks Arts Council
The band received 5000 of funding from the Arts Council towards replacement of flutes and drums which came to nearly 9000 in total. The band are now in possession of 24 new Crown Bb Flutes supplied by Miller-Wicks NI from Kilkeel, County Down and 8 new Andante Reactor side drums and accessories supplied by Mr Gary Smyth of Garvagh, County Londonderry.
The band are very pleased with the new instruments and are also proud to say that all instruments were made in Northern Ireland therefore helping to support the local manufacturing industry in the province.
