This
2011 the Glengarry Pipe Band invites you to help us celebrate
our 50th anniversary year. Based in Maxville Ontario, home
of the Glengarry Highland Games and The North American Pipe
Band Championships, we can be seen competing in Canada, the
U.S., and overseas and also perform at local charitable events,
community functions, and parades.
The Grade 4 band is led by Pipe Major Ross Davison with lead
drummer Jim Bush. If you are a piper or drummer come and join
the most progressive pipe band between Toronto and the Maritimes.
We strive to accomplish the best in music and to foster a
friendly competitive spirit and community involvement in our
youth.
What's
New
Glengarry
and Ottawa Police combine Grade 2 bands
In order to build a stronger
presence in Eastern Ontario the Glengarry Grade 2 band has
merged with the Ottawa Police Pipe Band under the direction
of PM Andrew Hayes. We wish all our former bandmates great
success in what should prove to be a band worth watching in
the upcoming 2012 season. Details of the merge can be found
on Pipes Drums.
Thanks to everyone who helped make our
50th Anniversary a great time for all our alumni. We
hope to see everyone again at our centennial celebrations....
A
Great First Year for our Grade V Band
Last
August 21 the Glengarry Grade 5 band competed for the
first time at the Almonte Highland Games and placed
3rd in a field of seven. This year, in it's first full
season of competition the band amassed a total of 2
firsts, 3 seconds (including a 2nd at the North American
Championships), 2 thirds and a 4th, with many firsts
in piping and drumming throughout. Congratulations to
the band and big thank you to Pipe Major Ross Davison
and Lead drummer Jim Bush for all their hard work. The
band will be advancing to compete at the Grade IV level
in 2012.
