Shawnigan Jazz Band

We are extremely proud of our jazz band at Shawnigan Lake this year. A fairly small and inexperienced group to be sure has risen to the challenge.  Pictured here playing a full lunchtime set in Marian Hall before they played a Saturday afternoon "gig" at the Shawnigan Community Centre, this group of students has grown in both expertise and confidence. The Saturday function was in support of the Cowichan Caregivers Society which comforts and assists those in our community suffering terminal illness.  The band played a varied program with Mike K. and Drew M. offering some very passionate compositions of their own.  A big thank you to everyone in the band and we look forward to a couple more performances before closing day on June 26.
