Practice site switched

The Greater Des Moines Community Band will practice at Illahee Hills Retirement Center, 8308 Colby Parkway, Urbandale, on Monday, May 23.

The band will practice at its normal time from 6:30 to 7:45 p.m. However, band members can set up as early as 6 p.m.

Band members should bring chairs and stands. Percussion should bring their equipment, stands, etc.

To get to the rehearsal site inside Illahee Hills Retirement Center, go to the entrance with the circle drive in front of it. After entering on the second floor of the building, go down one level to the first floor where the room is located. There should be an elevator available as well as stairs to help band members get downstairs.

Tonight's rehearsal (May 16) is at Rieman's as usual.

The band cannot use Rieman's or its usual backup site at Westkirk on May 23 due to conflicts at both sites.
