Old Giddings band revives with new overture at Lee County Fair
The Giddings Cornet Band, once a Lee County crowd-pleaser since 1903, is reassembling for the Lee County Fair under Henry Lehman who plans to recruit 25 to 30 musicians. Lehman, longtime Giddings merchant, recalls the band’s early days and the post fair plan to keep the music going with a larger group. The piece mentions past members and local musicians, plus weathering floods near Double Horn creek and a rattlesnake sighting report on a nearby ranch.
