Sunday
Parade of Remembrance 2025
Event Information
Following on from the success of ANZAC Day, we have the Year 12s excited to once join us for our annual street parade at the conclusion of the day's ceremonies.
Remembrance Day is the last time the Year 12s will perform with the younger bandsmen and their departure from the parade ground with us serves as their official welcome into the Old Boys Pipes and Drums.
Although it's a relatively short parade together (Oval -> Cranbrook Rd -> Main Gate), it's a poignant moment for the boys, their parents, and all of us. I urge all those that can make it to join us as we both remember the sacrifice of those that came before us and welcome a group of incredible young men into our ranks.
When: 1 June
Tune up starts @ 12:30pm on Fairfax.
March On @ 1:30pm (Main Oval)
March Off @ 3pm (w/ Year 12)
Uniform:
* White Shirt + Scots Tie + Black Vest
* Kilt + Day Sporran (Leather)
* Socks + Flashes + Black Shoes
Likely Tunes:
* Cock of the North (2pt) + Bonnie Dundee
* Athol Highlanders + 100 Pipers
* Marie's Wedding + 42nd Highlanders
* Rowan Tree + Wings
* Waltzing Matilda + Road to Gundagai
* Green Hill + Battle's O'er
* Sky Boat Song
* Highland Cathedral
* Scotland the Brave
Will adjust the tunes based on bandsmen
