fantastic news for all you solo pipers out there!!
Entry forms for this years competition at Cowal will go live on our website (www.cowalgathering.com) at noon on 20th April. They will close again on the 1st July.
This year sees some exciting changes to the competition as we introduce a C grade competition to the senior event. Aimed at those making the difficult step from juvenile competition to the senior grades; we hope that this will be a popular event. However in its first year we have limited the number of places available to 20 and these will be allocated to the first 20 entries received.
In the juvenile competition we have made the difficult decision to suspend the chanter competition due to the very low numbers received in recent years, 5 entries in 2 years, and replaced it with a local novice juvenile competiton which we hope will attract more entries.
For more information on all the solo piping events please see the main website on Monday 20th April after 12 noon.
At present we have sponsorship opportunities within the solo piping event and also in other areas of the Gathering. Anyone interested in further information should contact Malcolm Barclay on 01369 703206.
