Busy winter approaching.
For fans of piping and drumming in Northeast Arkansas, Southeast Missouri & extreme West TN.. there are at least 6 chances to see the band in action in the next 3 months. Check the CALENDAR for when and where the band will be.
We have 4 holiday parades in December (Hoxie, Jonesboro, Paragould and Marion, Arkansas)
Burns Night (and maybe a Kirking) in Jan;
and we'll be in Kennett, MO in Feb for an hour long concert.
7 of us will be traveling to Kansas City in the middle of January for the annual Winter Storm weekend. This weekend compresses some of the best piping and drumming competition in North America, 2 days of instruction, the premier concert in the U.S.; vendors, socializing and more into 3 days, in the dead of winter. It is not to be missed.
As a part of this effort to get to Winter Storm, we are however asking for help. The registration for the classes runs $120/person. We are taking all 4 of our under 18 year olds for this invaluable experience. That in addition to the hotel rooms, which are $93/night. We are seeking donations of any amount towards this trip. Some has been donated already, but more is needed. If you'd like to help, contact any member of the band and they'll put you in contact with me.
A new addtion to our online presence and communcation efforts is now up and running. We've set up an online forum, which fans, supporters, parents and of course members can use to hold conversations on just about any topic related to piping, drumming, band life and of course the band itself. Feel free to drop by, browse, and perferably register. Registering is the first step to being able to see and participate in more of the forums.
well, that's it for the moment, but there is much much more to come.
