Our 25th Performance at FDIC, and our 8th Pipe Band workshop were great successes. This year the Massed FDIC Pipe Band was almost 80 players strong. We had the privilege of playing all of the normal performances that we are known for, and in addition, we got to memorialize Chief Bobby Halton, who was instrumental in the growth of our band and in the formation of FDIC Pipes and Drums and the Pipe Band Workshop.
The band also got the chance to meet and perform with Chief David Rhoades, the new Editor -in-Chief of Fire Engineering.
