Thirty-six past members of the Asbury College Concert Band rehearsed and performed during Reunion Weekend, June 2007. The group was conducted by Asbury College Composer Emeritus James Curnow, recently retired Department Chair Dr. Lynn Cooper, and the present Concert Band Conductor, Professor Glen Flanigan. Members in the group included members from the class of 1956 through present students who will graduate in 2010. Players were from as close as Wilmore and as far away as Madrid, Spain; Santa Cruz, Bolivia; and Escobar, Paraguay.
