May Lonnnggg Weekend

The first outdoor contests of the season came and went this past weekend. James P. made the trip up island to Comox and managed to come home with 2 firsts in the Pro MSR and Jig & Hornpipe, a second in the Piobaireachd and a flat tire. Breakdown of all results can be found at: www.cvhg.org/
James P. and I competed on Sunday at Victoria. We both came away with 2nds - JP in Pro Piping MSR and myself in Pro Drumming MSR. Full results not available online as of yet.
It was a busy day with JP judging the band events as well as Ryan piping for the dancers on the other side of the field. Great weather, great attendance, awesome venue and some nice tunes heard throughout the day.
We all ended the long weekend with a long march in the Victoria Day Parade with the Greater Victoria Police Pipe Band, lead by James W. We headed up the Police contingent of the parade - there's nothing like sirens in your ear for a solid 2 hours!
