These two bands appear to be wearing identical uniforms. Could there be a connection between the Glengarry Pipe Band and the one whose name you did not catch?

Just something to ponder on!!

Take care,

They certainly look related, don't they? They were marching in two different places in the parade so I didn't catch that!

I used to march with the Burlington Teen Tour Band in Burlington, Ontario when I was growing up. Every spring we did the Burlington Sound of Music Festival Parade. We were the first AND last entry in the parade. The entire band would do the parade and then walk back to the marshaling area and do the parade again. It was hard going as a piccolo player, but when I became a majorette attired in kilt, wool jacket and glenngarry (closely matching the RCMP pic above) it was a very exhausting performance.
