3. Hire the band
Hire the band for your event. Paid performances provide valuable playing experience and the opportunity for fee revenue. The band has been featured in community festivals, school activities, church services, cultural diversity programs, parades, commencement ceremonies, memorial services, company meetings, private parties and in many other settings, as well as on National TV (Extreme Home Makeover and the opening of the Bird Museum featured on 60 Minutes). Presentations suitable for just about any venue can be developed.

4. Share the band with young people
Share the band with young people. If you know a boy or girl who loves music and is interested in the bagpipe or pipe band drumming, introduce us! Arrange for a visit to a band rehearsal, attend a performance or schedule a free introductory lesson. Beginners between the age of 8 and 16 are always welcome. The future of Scottish pipe and drum music relies on our young people.
