1997: JANE ELDRIDGE TITUS REMEMBERS KEEFER'S BAND

Thanks to Ms. Eleanor Guear for this photo which was given to her by Ms. Meyer who thinks her father was part of this popular Hamilton Square band. Stewart Keefer started this band back in 1929, at which time it was known only as the Hamilton Square YMCA Boys' Band. As the group became more popular, it became "Keefer's Band." They played in local churches, at the Hamilton Square Volunteer Fire Company dedication, and at the 1942 dedication of the Hamilton Township Municipal building.
