The Early Days

The band was called on numerous times when special events were going on, such as greeting the first train to arrive in El Dorado Springs in 1898, a gala event at the Grand Central Hotel in 1899, and escorting the first auto through town in 1908.

The band made it’s first radio broadcast in Salina, KS, and played at the dedication of the band shell at Fort Scott, KS. In my time we’ve played at the State Hospital in Nevada, MO, Radio Springs Park in Nevada, and Cole Camp, MO, for their town celebration. The park band became the goodwill ambassador for the city.
