Since our founding in 2002, we've become pretty well-rounded.  In addition to traditional parades, we’re regularly hired for performances and also compete at Highland Games in the region. We're most proud of having formed a combined teaching and mutually beneficial relationships with other pipe bands in the area.
We are also competing members of the Midwest Bagpipe Association.
