The big contest day came and went with great success for both bands
Dungarvan Training Band, conducted by Shauna McCullagh, came 1st in the Junior Section of the South of Ireland Band Championships. Shauna also won most promising conductor. It's a great achievement for the band, especially as they were so much younger than the other bands present.
Dungarvan Brass Band, conducted by Liam Daly came 2nd in the Intermediate Section. Another great result, and to add to it, the band also won the Best Brass Section Award (Cornet Section.)
Well done to all involved!

The performace on the 19th went well. It was our first proper performance in the new Plaza. The parks in Dungarvan tend to be located away from the centre of town, and the Square is always full of cars and traffic. It seems to be a good spot for more performances. Our thanks to the Manager and Staff of the DSC for allowing us to play there.
It was also the first performance of the newest chapter of DYB, and they certainly received an enthusiastic from the public.
Next big gig for both bands will be the Championships in Clonakilty this coming Saturday (July 3rd). Here's hoping we play well!
