At the first SABA Executive meeting for 2008, Bruce Raymond announced his resignation from the position of SABA President.

Mr Raymond stated that he felt that he had made a significant contribution to banding in South Australia and that he wished to focus more time on his work at Trinity College Gawler, the K&N Spring Gully Brass, and his family.

Bruce Raymond has been a wonderful SABA president over many years. He has done much to strengthen the profile of banding in this state, and has set a marvellous example for others to follow.Kevin Cameron, President SABA
