Our Tartan Parade was held last Saturday. This is a promotional event for the Highland Games coming up on the Victoria Day long weekend.
For my brother and I, it was our first opportunity to march with our band. We both are fairly newbie pipers, and we had joined the Greater Victoria Police Pipe Band last September. At the Tartan Parade, we were part of the massed bands (6 or 7 bands, I think). Here are some pics.
Rob and I before the event.
Warming up in the circle at Centennial Square.
Getting ready to march off. That's me above the "G" in Highland.
A short prayer that I don't screw up too badly.
We're off!
More to come.
