--------New Year, More workWell after a very difficult time we had last year all seemed to come good at the end with the band having a great time at The Welsh Indoor Championships. Maybe the result didn’t go our way but we achieved the best result that our band could have asked for and that’s marching again!!!
It was great to see some new faces in the band and some old faces re-join. This enabled us to build a very strong band from front to back.
This time of year is very difficult for most people to get motivated, as we are not out on competition, it just seems as though its practice after practice. But this is probably the most important time of year as it prepares you for the season ahead.
I hope this season is going to be a successful one, just like the seasons Zodiacs have been used to in years gone by. We have got a really good set of individuals at Zodiacs now with a winning mentality.
Well here’s to a great season ahead & hopefully some success on the arena.

The main winners of the day were Div 1 Alfreton Ambers, Div 2 Royal Premiers & Junior division Crook Town Grenadiers. Well done to all bands & everyone who won their individual sections.

I also wanna say a huge thanks to Donna's Dad, Tony for all the help & support that he has given to the band & a massive thanks for driving our coach for all of those years.
