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.

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!
