Shorecrest Highschool Marching Band

The Shorecrest Highschool Marching Band from Washington State, USA visited Cobh on Bank Holiday Monday. The group, over 170 members strong, assembled at the railway station, marched up through the town and back again, before finishing in the Promenade with a fabulous recital. They were excellent!!!

The band have won several awards during their Irish tour, including best marching band in the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Dublin. You could see why!

Here's a view of them while in the Promenade taken from the roof garden of the Commodore Hotel.

The group came at the invitation of Dr. Michael Martin of the Titanic Trail. Well done Michael!
