Detail:

The Band operated as a teaching band until l987 when it changed to a non-competition format, concentrating on public and private performances, parades and Remembrance Day ceremonies. A few of the members have been playing the pipes/drums for over 30 years and have a great deal of experience to pass on to those less experienced players. The band has instructed some of the finest pipers now playing in competition and/or in Grade 1 bands. While the band as a whole is a non-competition band, we support our members who choose to compete in individual competitions, quartets or as a mini-band. Band practices are held weekly, on Monday evenings from 6:30 - 9:00 PM at Newton Elementary School at 5523 - 122 Avenue, Edmonton. Contact Stewart Russell, Pipe Major, Ph. 987-5261 or Ken MacDonald, Band Factor, Ph. 456-2307 for further information.
