The East Lothian Solo Piping and Drumming Championships at Preston Lodge High School Saturday 14 December 2013

Welcome Message from Headmaster Gavin Clark It gives me great pleasure to welcome everybody to today’s Solo Piping and Drumming Competition. I am delighted that this event has attracted so many entries from across East Lothian.

Piping and Drumming in East Lothian is in a more positive place than it has been in a very long time thanks, in no small part, to the support so many young people and bands receive from the East Lothian Pipes and Drums Trust. That support has enabled a large number of families to become closely involved in the fantastic opportunities that piping and drumming can bring to young people.

I would like to thank the Trust, all those same families and our staff and tutors for making today’s event possible. I would also like to thank all those who have sponsored today’s event. Without that support the event would have been much diminished. Finally, and most importantly of all, I would like to thank all of the young people who have chosen to enter the competition.

I am certain that everybody will have a very positive day and I wish all the competitors the very best of luck.

Please Support our Sponsors Refreshments will be served in the Home Economics Department
