Members must have ability to march in parades, be willing to participate in Shrine and non-Shrine parades and other Shrine functions and be willing to attend practices and meetings as scheduled.
Unit information: The purpose of this unit, which was organized in 1949 in Claremont, NH, is to promote Bektash Shriners and Shrine Hospitals for children. For over 50 years, we have been a marching band with members from all over the State of New Hampshire and and some from Massachusetts. The unit has plans to have a riding unit in the future.
Meeting Schedule: The practices and meeting are held on the first and third Tuesday of the month, April through November, and only one meeting a month, December through March - at 7:30 PM at Bektash Shrine Center in Concord.
Dues: The dues are free for the first year, $10.00 yearly after that.
Other costs: New members may have to purchase part of the parade uniform. Members will have to pay for their own dress uniform.
