Drumming Up a Sense of Community in Music

Help me give my students the materials we need for study and practice for drumming. A solid pipe band tenor drum and stand serve greatly for learning and practice for those learning about pipe band drumming and flourishing.

My Project

My after-school club is for learners who love pipe band music and want to become tenor drummers. As a member of two pipe bands, I play tenor, bass, and snare. The most exciting is the tenor with the ability to flourish which is fun to watch and challenging to display as you drum, march, and play as a band.

This is an opportunity for my learners to gain skills for joining local pipe bands, including mine, as we are also a teaching band!

Hence, the after-school club provides the teaching for the drum corp.
