Saturday 16th April will be the first indoor contest of the season at James Young High School in Dedridge, Livingston. It will the first chance for the band to gauge what effect their hard work over the winter months has had on their playing, and will be followed by a second indoor contest in Dundee on 23rd April.
Last Saturday a mini band took part in a Community Fun Day at Tesco in Redding, Falkirk which was an opportunity for a few of the younger members to perform in public. It was also the first showing for the band’s new drums, complete with new heads for the bass drum, which again carry an image of Sir William Wallace as designed by local artist Murray Robertson and are now synonymous with the Wallacestone & District Pipe Band.
Pipe Major Neil Henderson was delighted to accept a cheque from Tesco for supporting their Community Day.
