Sponsors

It takes a lot to keep a band like ours operating at a world class level. We are very proud to be supported by and associated with the following organizations:

This is our fifth season playing Pearl drums, and we have recently taken possession of our third custom from them. In 2007 we won the World Pipe Band Championships coveted Best Drum Corps award playing these instrument. We thank Pearl for their generous support and their collaborative approach.


McCallum generously provides all of the pipe chanters we play. We have enjoyed great success using the McCallum product and support them through research and development of new products. We have members of the pipe corps who play McCallum chanters in solo competition and some who play McCallum drones too.


The drum corps plays Duthart Percussion Classic sticks manufactured by Drum Sergeant, Drew Duthart. This stick was based on the original Alex Duthart stick and was re-released in 2009 as The Classic. The stick is available directly from Drew and can easily be found in many highland supply shops globally.


The tenor drummers use the TyFry™ 10th Anniversary Edition Platinum mallet. Generously supplied each year by Tyler Fry, last year he made a special green set for our core to match the green drums they were playing. Thanks Tyler for the support over the years.


Starting in 2011, the Pipers’ Choice brand supplies the band with an assortment of items from Bag Covers to Cap Badges. Pipers’ Choice is best known as leaders in bagpipe accessories and their products are available internationally from local retailers.


Since 2010, David Ogilvie has helped the band out tremendously by supplying us with new vest for all of our members. He worked with us to get the perfect colour to match the rest of the uniform, and he delivered them in a very timely manner. He’s a great guy to work with.
