We are pleased to announce that the new series of beginners’ drumming workshops will start at 12.45pm on Sunday 12 October 2014, and will run till 3pm. There will be 6 workshops in total, and costs are $60 for the series if paid in full, or $12.50 per workshop.

The workshops are being run at our temporary rehearsal venue – Bell Road Gym (2 Bell Road, off Bidwill Street, Mt Cook).

The dates for the workshops will be Sunday 12 October, Sunday 26 October, and Sundays 2, 9, 16, 23 November. Note there will be no session on 19 October as the band has a gig in Whanganui on that day. Each workshop will run from 1 – 3pm, apart from the first which has the earlier start time of 12.45pm, to allow for the registration process.
