Proms in the Park Cllr Joyce Lucas BEM Celebrating War, Rutland Concert Band performing "Proms in the Park" in Cutts Close in aid of Help for Heroes

Proms in the Park Cllr Joyce Lucas BEM Celebrating War



Some prefer to solemnly commemorate the start of World War One, Cllr Joyce Lucas BEM decided a celebration was best for Oakham. Some Cllrs did appear a little surprised that a party in the park was suggested. The request to party was toned down to Proms in the park with the later addition of supporting a good cause.

Saturday 28th June sees the Rutland Concert Band performing "Proms in the Park" in Cutts Close Oakham in aid of Help for Heroes

The evening will start from 6.30pm and will feature light hearted war themes, the 1812 Overture and traditional proms night favourites including Jerusalem and Land of Hope and Glory with a promised explosive finish!

The Rutland Concert Band will be joined on the evening by guest vocalist Caroline Trutz.
The Lions Club of Rutland will be operating a catering pay tent but you are more than welcome to bring your own refreshments, gazebos and chairs and of course, Union Jacks.

The Concert is free and there is free parking after 6pm in all car parks with the nearest being those on Church Street and Burley Road.

Cars are not permitted in Cutts Close unless you are a Town Councillors Joyce Lucas BEM and Cllr Charles Haworth
