The band in 2010 The band currently comprises 17 playing members of all ages,
with 10 pipers and 7 drummers, plus a large number of learners. We are a
social band, where young people are encouraged to
participate, and new members are especially welcome. The band is currently replacing their kilts and plaids, some of which have seen service since the commencement of the band in 1953 and are invariably well worn. We are involved in extensive ongoing fundraising activities to replace the band jackets and other equipment, and appreciate the contributions made by members of the public to our Uniform Appeal. Thank you to those who have contributed!

The band regularly plays at a number of agricultural
shows, parades and festivals throughout the district. We also team up with
other pipe and brass bands for parades and displays such as ANZAC Day
commemorative ceremonies and our annual bands' fellowship day in October each year.
