On July 30th, the Grade 3 Band competed in a field of ten bands at the North American Pipe Band Championships. This event is held annually within Glengarry County, at the small town of Maxville Ontario. The band won the contest and received three of a possible four first place scores. The entire band is very proud of they way the band performed, and are elated with the result!

The Grade 1 band performed very well in the premier event, and was placed first in one of the two event contests. The band placed third overall in a field of seven internationally competitive bands.
