Clan MacNaughton Pipe Band

The Clan MacNaughton Pipe Band was formed in 1972 and adopted the MacNaughton name and tartan because of the Clan's affiliation of the band's first Pipe Major. The band operated as a teaching band until l987 when it changed to a non-competition format, concentrating on public and private performances, parades and Remembrance Day ceremonies. A few of the members have been playing the pipes/drums for over 30 years and have a great deal of experience to pass on to those less experienced players. The band has instructed some of the finest pipers now playing in competition and/or in Grade 1 bands.

While the band as a whole is a non-competition band, we support our members who choose to compete in individual competitions, quartets or as a mini-band.

Band practices are held weekly, on Monday evenings from 6:30 - 9:00 PM at Edmonton Scottish Society. Contact Patricia Gregoire Pipe Major, Ph. 992-0465 or Ken MacDonald, Band Factor, Ph. 456-2307 for further information.
