On Saturday, May 23, 2009, the Grade 3 Toronto Police Pipe Band traveled to Kingston Ontario to participate in the Fifth Annual “Ontario Power Generation” Celtfest. Scott Bell and members of Kingston’s own Rob Roy Pipe Band organized the event, which was held in the Rideau Acres Campground.

The privately run games were well attended with bands in grade 5, 4, 3, and grade 2. The weather threatened to turn poor, however, the day turned out great, with a good-sized and appreciative crowd taking in the events.

All the judges were asked to prepare sheets from an ensemble perspective. The band put on a good performance, and received a second place finish for their efforts.

Thanks to Pipe Major Scott Bell and the Rob Roy Pipe Band for a great day!
