140th anniversary of Ballywillan Flute Band

That this House recognises that Ballywillan Flute Band, formed in 1884 in Portrush, Northern Ireland, is celebrating 140 years since its formation, and has ensured that thousands of young people down through that time have learned to play a variety of musical instruments demonstrating a high degree of excellence, having entertained tens of thousands of people over the years at parades, sporting events and other functions; commends all those associated with the Band; and expresses the hope that the good work will continue for many decades to come.
