Marching Championships

The Nelson Marching centre had bad luck to strike unfavourable weather for its championships on February 17 and when they had to be cancelled many visiting teams from outside the district were unable to return a little time later to compete, Nevertheless, the contests later went off without a hitch.

Champion senior team, Grosvenor Guards: back, Joy Gibbons, Julie Gibbons, Jill Johnson, Ruth Haswell (instructor), Joyce McKay, Judy Hansen, Margaret Jacques; front, Cynthia Ward, Sharon Delaney, Janice Archer (leader), Glenda Briggs, Beverley Kincaid.
