Strike up the band

Jeremy Duggleby

A group of 4 Wing Cold Lake band musicians rehearse while following social distancing requirements.

CLIFF KENYON Despite the ravages of the pandemic the music must go on – it hasn’t died, it’s just hiding for a while.

You’ve seen on TV news as musicians perform on the street or from balconies and the 4 Wing Brass and Reed Band is staying sharp and in tune for when they will be needed again.

Many band members have been rehearsing at home alone because meeting and rehearsing with the 20 members of the band wouldn’t be permited.

“Since our typical full rehearsal is upwards of 20 personnel, we’ll be on hold until those restrictions ease up a bit more,” said Band Master WO/Adj Jeremy Duggleby.

“We are currently rehearsing our small group (Brass Quintet) as we’re able to maintain a 6’ distance between all the players while rehearsing,” he said. “As you can imagine, with that kind of spacing and a larger ensemble, the physical distancing requirement would be difficult to meet.”

“Online rehearsals are at the mercy of a technology that can’t quite keep up with such a large group,” he said, although band members continue to explore options.

The band usually performs several times during summer and at mess functions, but all such gatherings have been cancelled.

“Our typical ‘Mess Dinner Season’ didn’t really happen this year. My hope is that by the fall we will be able to begin performing in public again, but that

will depend upon the restrictions put in place by all levels of government and 4 Wing.”

“I’ve been exploring the option of doing a small group performance live online, but the challenges posed by a larger group in the same situation are magnified. Once again, I believe we will eventually get back to pre-COVID-19 ‘normal’ but it may take some time.”

Duggleby said band members miss making music together.

“Walking into the band room right now is like walking into a ghost town in an old western - exacerbated at the moment by open windows and the wind whistling through the screens. I very much miss the folks in the Band as well. They’ve become a sort of extended family over the last few years, and not

seeing them on a regular basis has really been challenging.”

Usually for band members it’s all about making great music, something the band has been doing for more than 40 years.

Duggleby admits it can be a lot of work but band members, about 45 volunteers who are Canadian Armed Forces members and civilians, are driven to hit the right notes.

“They are enthusiastic about coming out to perform and for rehearsals,” said Duggleby.

The mix of CAF members and civilians is the perfect combination for long-term success.

“The band is a perfect bridge between the community and the base.”

Pandemic silences most 4 Wing band activities ...continued from front page While CAF members who are band members may come and go due to postings which take them elsewhere, civilian members often remain for several years.

“We have a civilian volunteer who has been a member of the band for 30 years and many who have been here 10 years or more.”

Most newcomers to the band have had some musical experience.

“Some played in a high school band. They enjoyed it and want to return to it.”

Members include “raw beginners” to professionals such as local civilian music teachers. Duggleby admits that with such a wide range of skill levels it can be challenging to choose a repertoire.

“As a musician here, you have to be willing to do a bit of everything.”

It has been a busy band, said Duggleby. They normally rehearse weekly on base to be ready for the approximately 80 performances each year. In a normal year without the threat of a pandemic, they perform at such events as mess dinners, at official base functions and at spring and winter concerts held in Cold Lake.

“We are always ready to support what ever we are asked to do on the base or in the community. We usually put on a good show.”

It can be a challenging calendar to keep track of, but Duggleby has been a CAF member for 18 years and has been involved in scheduling and logistics in the military. He has also had postings in Winnipeg

That’s OK to do, but many things are far from normal.

And always keep in mind the new rules of deportment. You must keep your distance from others. Two metres apart at least, please. And there shall be: NO touching, NO shouting, NO spitting and NO, NO singing.

And they aren’t really suggestions or guidelines. It’s an order.

And it’s all because of our new pal COVID-19. I say pal, because we simply can’t get rid of it. It’s stubborn, like a house guest you are stuck with until the holiday ends.

I suppose we can understand the restrictions that disallow getting too close. How close is too close? It’s less than two metres. We all know that now. And no greetings involving handshakes, hugs and don’t even think of kissing.

don’t miss shouting and yelling being banned. But banning singing seems a bit too much. No music. Is this taking things a bit too far?

COVID-19 has also made it difficult for the 4 Wing Band to rehearse. Keeping proper distancing is all but impossible for the 20 or more members to get together to make music. And even if they could, there’s no one to perform for.

Has the music died?

Makes me remember that song released in 1971 by Don Mclean.

Sure you remember it. Don McLean who sang Miss American Pie about the day the music died.

He wrote the ballad to mark the 1959 air crash deaths of Buddy Holly, The Big Bopper Richardson and Rickie Valens.

It’s unlikely McLean meant literally that the music would die.

He was bemoaning the death of his early heroes of rock and roll. Some suggest it is actually a grim tune of circumstance. You can be sure he didn’t think of a pandemic, but instead he was thinking of unhappy

outcomes.

But don’t fear. The musuic isn’t really dead. Like many things we enjoyed before the nasty newish normal, it’s just resting, ready to pull off the shelf when we need it next.

The 4 Wing Band is making sure it’s ready for the day when it is safe again to shout and yell and dance and even sing. Most members had been resting at home. They have been resting and rehearsing at home, eager to play together again.

Even though you can’t hear them today or tomorrow, the music is far from dead.

Some members have even been rehearing online.

No. The music is far from dead.

The musicians are waiting patiently for the day band leader Jeremy Duggleby can again strike up the band.

It’s something we are all waiting for. editor@couriernews.ca

COVID-19 cancels sports plans JERRY INGHAM, 4 WING COLD LAKE SPORTS COORDINATOR With the announcement of CAF National Soccer being cancelled for this year, I am now unfortunately announcing that Canada West Men’s Soccer Championship and the women’s development camp are also cancelled for this year.

Regarding our annual Regional Sports meeting, work will continue with CFB Comox and see if it is possible to host in later Sep/early Oct. If this cannot be done due to ongoing COVID-19 issues we will look at doing something virtually.

There have been ongoing efforts

related to CAF business resumption and the return to sport is no exception.

The following message is from CFMWS’s Bruce Ploughman.

Given the nature of sport we need to face the reality that a return to sport, as with many other services, will be different for the foreseeable future. Given these realities the organization of national and international championships is not realistic in the short term.

It is thus with great disappointment that organizers announced that the 2020 National Volleyball, Basketball, Ball Hockey, Triathlon, Running, and Soccer Championships were cancelled. Furthermore, all competitions, CISM and international events, which were to be held abroad, are

cancelled until December 31, 2020.

Decisions regarding regional competitions will depend on provincial guidelines and those issued by Commands and Base/Wing Comds.

We remain hopeful that in the next few months we will be able to provide our members with meaningful experiences and alternatives (e.g. training, provincial and/or regional training camps, regional championships, etc.) so that when the time comes we will be ready to return to play safely.

Given the constantly evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact, no decisions have been made beyond December 2020 for now.

We will shortly share tools and resources

with Base/Wing Sport personnel to support informed decisions for an adapted and safe return to play for local and regional sport.

We must also bear in mind that athletes, coaches, and employees will return with different experiences, attitudes, priorities, and fears.

On behalf of the Sports Department and the community, I would like to thank you for your patience and your enthusiasm to return to play. I would also like to thank the Coaching Association of Canada and the Canadian Sports Institute of Ontario for including us in the conversation and for the training offered to the Canadian sports system regarding the return to sports during this time.

PSP COVID-19 Study Recruitment SUBMITTED PSP would like to know how COVID-19 is affecting your individual operational physical readiness? Are you accessing PSP online programming or maintaining operational fitness through other means?

We are looking for study volunteers to identify the impacts of isolation during COVID-19 on CAF Individual Operational Physical Readiness.

Specifically, the status and behaviours of physical fitness, nutrition, injury and sleep.

We are looking for Regular Force and Primary Reserve CAF members of all ages, fitness levels and work environments to participate. This study requests a commitment of 10 to 24 minutes per 2-week period for as long as the COVID-19 restrictions continue, ending with the full return to work and use of PSP fitness facilities and services.

We would like to learn from your experience to better serve your needs during this difficult time. If you are interested, please sign up by clicking on the link below: h t t p s: // w w w. s u r ve y m o n k e y. c o m / r/ BalanceP4EquilibreCOVID-19

Summer on purpose

A

few years ago… ok more than a few years ago now! A few years ago my wife and I were blessed to be able to get away on a vacation, just the two of us, while our kids were very young. Being young parents, it was a tough go trying to change all the diapers, keep up with toddlers and rowdy preschoolers. (We had all boys you see, and they had a LOT of energy!) So when the grandparents agreed to look after them to give us a break we jumped at the chance. We hopped on a plane and landed in Manzanillo, Mexico for an all-inclusive week.

While we were there though, we had a chance to take some tours of local sights. We rode in a van from the resort into the city of Manzanillo, driving through countryside that was nothing like Canadian prairie farmland with banana plantations, adobe villages, and cerveza signs. Then we took a longer ride into the big city of Guadalajara, with its stunning cathedrals, ruins, and a smoking volcano thrown in for good measure!

It was a great week, but on those drives through the country what also struck us was the poverty of the country-folk. We saw “homes” that housed families as large as ours that were barely four walls and a roof.

Padre Oliver Edwards

CHAPLAIN’S CORNER

We saw dirt tracks, and people walking because their beaten up vehicle wouldn’t get them where they needed to go. We realized that some of the employees at our resort were residents of such homes, and we began to feel kind of guilty about living large while the people who were serving us were in poverty.

We decided after that trip that the next time we were able to get away on our own, it would be for a purpose. To make a positive contribution to the world we live in. We were aware that getting away for getting away’s sake wasn’t wrong, but we wanted to be intentional, to vacation “on purpose” – giving us a break from the humdrum of our daily rhythms, but also giving back by doing something positive. Thankfully, two years later, our parents had fully recovered from looking after our young ones, and had forgotten enough of the experience to agree to do it again! We joined a team that travelled to Rwanda, just 12 years after the Genocide, and saw a nation rebuilding with forgiveness and vigour. We participated in building a model school to train teachers, and build up through education the most abundant resource the tiny nation had – their people.

As we head into summer, I know that the

pandemic has thrown many for a loop. Some of us are exhausted in a way we have never experienced.

Some of us are mentally, even spiritually worn out and are in desperate need of something we might not even know how to obtain. Because many restrictions have only recently been lifted, summer plans are even now just being finalized. I encourage you if you are making that plan now, to be intentional about doing more with your summer than just seeking pleasure or rest. I encourage you to vacation “on purpose”.

Find a way to include in your plans opportunities to give back, to contribute positively to others. It might sound like more work, but you will find that in giving generously of your time, your energy, and maybe even a little of your money to making your world a better place is even more restorative than just suntanning on a beach or drinking a cold one by a fire. Something special happens when you give life to others. The blessing is returned to your very soul, lightening your load and providing strength you didn’t even know you lacked.

Vacation on purpose this summer. Be blessed!
