The ‘trip of a lifetime’ for an Omagh flute band, letters from Canada in the 1800s and garlic for Glenarm’s tulips!

Memories of the ‘trip of a lifetime’ for the Omagh Protestant Boys (and girls) melody flute band and the letters sent home by Lisbellaw lads who’d moved to Canada in the mid-1800s.

This week, Kintra team member and conductor - Willie Hill - hears about the ‘trip of a lifetime’ to Savannah, Georgia for the Omagh Protestant Boys (and girls!) melody flute band; Helen meets the man with a box of letters sent home by his great, great grandfather’s brothers who moved from Lisbellaw to Canada in the mid-1800s and we discover how garlic drove tulips off the menu for Glenarm’s birds.
