On Saturday 21 May 2023, the Northwest Territorial Pipe Band conducted a piping maintenance workshop.  Bagpipes were disassembled, bags tested and adjusted, pipes inspected and re-hemped and so forth.  Three new pipers carried out maintenance on three sets of band bagpipes under the instruction of Andrew Bruce and Lorie Crawford.  At the end of the workshop these three pipers then blew their first notes on the bagpipes.  The Band welcomes them and looks forward to them getting up to speed and playing with the Band.
