Trainee publicity officer Bronwyn Bay said after successfully hosting the New Zealand Marching Championships in March, the 2021-22 season was about to begin again.
To get things started the Onyx Militaires marching club would be hosting a ‘‘Have a Go’’ day this Sunday at the Edgar Centre, she said.
Unite Marching would host ‘‘Have a Go’’ sessions on Saturday, June 26 at Tahuna Normal Intermediate School.
The free events were a fun way for locals to get interested in a new sport and to make new friends, she said.
‘‘All ages, genders and abilities are welcome within Marching Otago teams.
‘‘We are looking forward to meeting new people and introducing them to the world of marching.’’
Marching Otago was particularity keen to encourage boys to take part as well, Ms Bay said.
