Ackley's
Orchestra
at
Cedar
Point
near
Sandusky
,
Ohio
.
E.B
.
Ackley
was a
music
teacher
at
Sandusky
High
School
, and
managed
the
band
at
Cedar
Point
for
many
years
in
addition
to
Ackley's
Orchestra
. He
became
director
of the
Great
Western
Band
in
1893
. At that
time
, its
name
was
changed
to the
Ackley
Band
. The
band
survived
into the
1930s
. The
local
band
or
orchestra
was
one
of the
more
popular
forms
of
entertainment
in the
late
nineteenth
century
.
Many
towns
had a
band
to
provide
music
at
special
events
, or to
provide
an
evening's
entertainment
.
Sandusky
had
several
bands
,
offering
various
musical
forms
and
playing
at
locations
throughout
the
area
.
One
of the
earliest
bands
in
Sandusky
, the
Ogontz
Band
, was
formed
in
1845
.
Many
more
formed
shortly
thereafter
, with the
peak
period
for
bands
in
Sandusky
being
ca.
1880
to
1910
.
Perhaps
the
most
famous
Sandusky
band
of that
time
was the
Great
Western
Band
,
which
performed
at
parties
, the
local
opera
house
,
Cedar
Point
,
among
other
locations
. The
Germania
Reed
Band
was
another
popular
group
of the
era
.
Founded
in
1873
,
it
is
representative
of the
large
German
immigrant
community
in
Sandusky
during
that
era
.
