The Ian Sturrock Memorial Pipe Band is proud to announce that since May we have brought TWO 1st Place awards back home to our great state of Alabama! Debuting at their very first contest, ISMPB attended the Gatlinburg Scottish Festival & Games and took the top prize in sanctioned Grade 5 pipe band competition, even acquiring three AGL's ("Above Grade Level"). ISMPB carried on the winning streak three weeks later at the Glasgow Highland Games bringing home their second 1st Place win.

Now ISMPB intends to buckle down over the summer to perfect our Quick March Medley for the contest at the Stone Mountain Highland Games Saturday, October 18th, 2010 at Stone Mountain State Park in Georgia. Please make your plans to come and support ISMPB as we head east to bring home another trophy from the biggest Scottish festival in the Southeast!
