The Algoma Community Band was organized in March of 1978.  Kerry Nichols was instrumental in organizing the group.  The original band consisted of approximately sixty members.  Membership was open to anyone interested in playing a musical instrument.

The band members have enjoyed traveling throughout Europe.  They have played concerts in the following countries:  Belgium, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic, Ireland, and Scotland and England in 2023.  Closer to home concerts have been played in Washington D.C; Columbus, OH; Chicago, IL; and various cities in Wisconsin.

Each August the band plays in the Algoma Shanty Days parade and concert.  In the past, the band has been a very popular marching group in various parades in Wisconsin.  They are very visible in the community and county playing concerts for the Veterans Day Concert, After Taxes Concert, Band-O-Rama, and at other local functions.

The Community Band and the Lakeshore Singers, directed by David Robertson, have joined together for many of the yearly concerts.  The band also has played several joint concerts with other community bands in the Green Bay, Door County, and the Fond du Lac area.

Without the dedication and leadership of our directors, the band would not be in existence today.  We owe a great deal to the following directors:  Kerry Nichols, Dale Wahlers, Mary Jo Feld, Jeff Rosendahl, Bill Dennee, Dave Kopetsky, Phil Stangel, John Nielsen, Laura Schram, and Tom Mueller.
