In 2009 the Group’s pipe band will celebrate its 75th Anniversary. Through the historians in the Group it has been established that the meeting to found a band in the De La Salle Scout Group took place on December 15th 1933 and the band had its first parade on May 15th 1934. To kick off the celebrations the band launched its programme of events for their 75th anniversary celebrations on Sunday December 14th last in the Hall at Stephen Street School. Detailed information on the programme was disclosed by the young members of the band and the band also gave a short performance of some new and old tunes. You can read the full programme here. There was also a very interesting slide show of pictures of the band over the75 years. Best of luck to the band in the coming year from all at the De La Salle Scout Group.
