MSAPD will move rehearsals to the Brewer Armory beginning March 3rd. We are keeping our usual rehearsal time on Thursdays, 6:30-9pm. The band is always looking for pipers and drummers, experienced or aspiring. We offer free lessons to those interested in being a part of the band, so drop by a rehearsal or contact us for more information!

We're now setting our performance schedule for the 2011 season. If you're interested in having MSAPD perform in a parade, concert or other event, please contact our business manager (see contacts).

We welcome those interested in learning to play the pipes or drums, as well as those with experience who wish to play in a pipe band setting. The band offers free instruction for those who wish to join. If you're interested, please contact our business manager (see contacts).

Maine St. Andrew's Pipes and Drums was awarded the Best Drum Corps award in the 2009 Grade 5 Pipe Band Competition at Loon Mountain in Lincoln, NH. Congratulations to the drummers! The band finished 5th overall in some tough competition, in what proved to be challenging weather conditions. The competition capped off an exciting performance season for us, and we'd like to thank all who came out to see us and supported us through the season. We hope to see you again next year!

Five bands from Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts competed in Grade 5 at the 2009 Maine Highland Games at Thomas Point on August 15th. It was MSAPD's second competition of the year, and we came away with our second win of the season, following our exciting first place victory out of a group of nine bands last April at the New Hampshire Scottish Arts Indoor Festival! It was a very enjoyable day, despite the stiflingly hot weather, and we were all overjoyed with the results.

We participated in the games for the first time on Saturday, April 11th, and got our performance season off to a great start by winning in our grade. Nine bands from Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont and Massachusetts participated in the Grade 5 competition at New Hampshire Technical Institute in Concord. MSAPD has worked hard on our competition set through the winter, and we were delighted with the results this weekend!
