Band Practice

The Band practices each and every Thursday night at St. Margaret Church of Scotland located at 31641 La Novia Av. in San Juan Capistrano. Practice is between the hours of 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM.  

Practice is between the hours of 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM. When we get closer to competitions the competition band will add an additional practice during the week. Occasionally the band will also set up an outdoor marching practice on a Saturday or Sunday in order to prepare for specific gigs, parades, highland games, etc. We are indebted to St. Margaret for generously offering their facility to us free of charge and hope to continue in their good graces by performing when requested at church and school events. 
Anyone interested in becoming a member of the band, piper or drummer, is encouraged to attend one of our practices and meet the “gang”. Our philosophy is to work hard and have fun in the process! We look forward to seeing you
