Band spreads holiday cheer
July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.
Captains Joel and Amy Dahlberg have reformed the Salvation Army band with a group of brass players.
Their gigs feature about any traditional holiday carol and are performed wherever a bell-ringer maintains a red kettle for donations: Wal-Mart, Owens, Kmart and Marsh in Warsaw.
"We're spreading holiday cheer," Jody said.
Jody plays the coronet as does Jennifer Mink and Jennifer Bowyer; Amy plays the E-flat alto horn; Paul Bowyer plans the euphonium and Judy Brown plays the baritone. All they need is someone to play a big brass drum.
Saturday morning they zipped through tunes like "Frosty the Snowman," "Jingle Bells," "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" and "The First Noel."
Bell-ringers are still needed to fill open hours at some locations, Dahlberg said.
As the band offers support to the bell ringers, they'll take requests. [[In-content Ad]]
