Salt Lake City Highland Games 2019

In 2019, the band competed at the Utah Scottish Festival in Salt Lake City.

The band earned a 6th place and a 3rd place that weekend. Why did we get different results from Vegas 2018 Contest?

Short answer: Growth

The band grew in numbers between 2018 and 2019 and we added 6 new band members. All six of those new band members were beginners. They learned many new skills at the contest and have since grown into formidable and competent players at their instruments: Pipes, Snare, Tenor, and Bass.

This contest was a huge "win" in growth and skills development. Two of our band members were age 8 at the time of the contest!

Happy faces of the competition band at the 2019 Utah Scottish Festival in Salt Lake City.
