Thank you, Windmore members!

To everyone who gave during Giving Tuesday...thank you!

Through your generosity, Windmore raised over $1,200 during the event...easily exceeding our goal of $1,000.

We could not have done it without you!

Piedmont Community Band

Excitement is in the Air!

What an exciting time to be a part of Piedmont Community Band! The percussion equipment we purchased through a grant from the Loeb Foundation finally arrived! We’ve only had it a few weeks and it has already completely changed the sound of the band! We hope you’ll join us for our concert at 7:00pm on December 15th at Culpeper Presbyterian Church to hear us premiere the new drum kit and timpani!

The band has also become a part of the Association of Concert Bands. This national organization will help us continue to develop as an ensemble with helpful information and resources.

The future is looking bright for Piedmont Community Band and we are so grateful to the board and members of Windmore and to Executive Director Kevin for the tremendous support! Thank you!
