Meet the Pierce County Firefighter Pipes & Drums

We wanted to share with you the starts of a brand new Pipes & Drums Band ...  The Pierce County Firefighter Pipes & Drums   http://pcffpd.com  They debut in 2009.

We wanted to let you know how much effort goes into creating & maintaining a firefighter Pipes & Drums band.  So I'll be adding update photos here throughout their eventual debut.  Then hopefully in a year or so, we can follow up with photos of their actual performances.

Realize that this is a volunteer effort.  No one gets paid, no one is getting overtime ... This is why these bands are so special.  The band members take from their own personal time to do all of the rehearsing and get togethers to make it all perfect.

Our Purpose

The Pierce County Firefighters Pipes & Drums band was established to promote the traditions of the Fire Service. To honor the brothers and sisters of our profession, past and present, and to increase camaraderie amongst all Professional Firefighters

 through our musical expression.

Below are some of our local, and some of our favorite Pipes & Drum bands ...

  ~~ Tacoma Scots Pipe Band

 

Seattle Firefighters Pipes & Drums ~~  

 ~~ Snohomish County Firefighters Pipes & Drums

Professional Firefighter's of NH Pipes & Drums ~~

Tacoma Scots Pipe Band

So enjoy the photos.  Check back every now and again to see what they're up to, and how far they've advanced.

 

We wish the Pierce County Firefighter Pipes & Drums much success.  This is gonna be fun!

FYI:  You might notice a couple folks at practice who are not professional firefighters.  The reason is that cadets and volunteer firefighters are able to practice & play with them, but are not eligible to be considered for the actual band until they are professional firefighters.
