The City of Washington Pipe Band has been one of the finest pipe bands in North America for over 30 years. In August of 1999, the band won First Place in the World Pipe Band Championships and the World Drums Corps Championships for Grade 2 in Glasgow, Scotland. They were then promoted by the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association to Grade 1--one of only two American bands in the premier rank. The band has performed for Presidents of both parties and for audiences at the Kennedy Center and the National Geographic Explorers' Hall.
