Results – Knockout Feb. 7, 2015

This month’s knockout event was well attended although slightly marred by seasonal illness causing some competitors to scratch. The activity level was rather high with both Groups A and B Piping and Drumming competitions.

Group A pipers had to play a medley consisting exclusively of Canadian content meaning the tunes must have originated with a Canadian composer. Group B pipers played a 2/4 march.

The adjudicators for the evening were Jacob Dicker and Neil Birkett (drumming). Jacob gave a recital after the competition was concluded.
