The NBCA AGM and annual conference which was held in Launceston in June proved to be a busy time for the Councillors and the NBCA Executive.

The conference received a detailed report from the hosting committee of the Gawler 2016 Championships and the Council extended warm congratulations on the successful staging of an excellent event. The support of Trinity College, the District Council and people of the district was an essential contribution in making the event such a success.

A detailed report was presented on the preparations for the 2017 Championships to be held in Launceston. This promises to be an event with considerable attractions for the banding community in such a picturesque and historical city. The planning by the organizing committee indicates bands experience superb venues for their performances and excellent prospective adjudicators.

As usual matters raised at the conference from all the State bodies were debated at length. It was again a busy couple of days for the Councillors and officials as they illustrated their passion and dedication to Australia’s band movement.
