Band Christmas Party 2014

We held our annual Barrie Pipes & Drums Christmas party on Dec. 6th at the Lions Gate Banquet Center here in Barrie.  We had a very busy/successful year, so it was nice to kick back and celebrate the end of another pipe band year. 

On behalf of the band executive, I would like to wish all of our members and their families a safe and merry Christmas!

Below is a gallery of pictures from the nights events.  Special thanks goes out to Ange (Band Manager) for organizing the party and donating the photo booth.  Please click on the picture to view the next one!
