Spectacular Start To Outdoor Competition Season [9th May, 2015]

Saturday, 9th May was a day of firsts: our first competition in our new uniforms, our first outdoor competition of the 2015 season, and to top it all, the band came first in the Loch Leven Pipe Band Contest. The pressure was certainly on to perform well at our "home" competition, and especially as we had chosen this contest to launch our new uniform. And the practice over the winter months paid off, with a first place in the Grade 4A contest, and a commendable fourth place in Grade 3. Congratulations to the band, and also to DM Mike Spain who came third in the Drum Majors contest - clearly looking sharp in the first DM competition of the season.
