KSPB are British Champions

Postby Kintyre Forum News » Sun Jun 26, 2011 9:58 am

We are hearing, through the grapevine, that Kintyre Schools Pipe Band were crowned British Champions yesterday - winning this major in a field of seventeen other bands at Annan in Dumfries and Galloway.! Well done everyone involved.

Can anyone confirm and add to the news? (please :mrgreen: )
