Description

JJ’s Pickup Band blue covered binder scrapbook, dated 2006 to October 29, 2012.  A group of musicians from the LeRoy Community Band enjoyed playing music and found a way to perform more often, traveling to Stacyville, Iowa for the Brat Parade.  They named their band JJ's Pickup Band for the driver with the truck.  They traveled to Cherry Grove and Spring Valley for summertime parades, to the Mower County Historical Society for front porch concerts during Fair week and Fall Harvest in Austin, and other area towns and events.  The scrapbook contains lists of members, photographs, lists of music played and newspaper clippings, programs and maps.
