The Junior Concert Band rehearses every other Wednesday from 6:30 to 8:00 pm. Our rehearsal location alternates between F. H. Collins Secondary and Porter Creek Sec. To access the F. H. Collins' Music Room enter the double doors just past the Library, south of the large fields. At P. C. S.

The double doors (straight ahead as you make the last right turn) will take you directly into the Music Room.
