A hot day in Liberty Corner, NJ but no rain.  Unfortunately we lost a windshield but otherwise had an enjoyable day.  Complete results can be located at the EUSPBA site.

Stay tuned for pictures and videos.

I am not 100% sure of the placing for the grade 4 band, but a video of the performance is below. Specific results will be posted as soon as I have them.

The grade 3 band wrapped up the 2009 season with a medley performance yesterday at Altamont.  There were 10 grade 3 bands in the contest and overall CRC finished in 7th place. Congratulations to the Stuart Highlanders for their winning performance.  Judges scores were:

Piping – 6; Piping – 6; Ensemble – 8; Drumming – 8

The grade 3 band participated in the Hunter Mountain Celtic festival & pipe band competition yesterday at Hunter Mountain Ski Resort.  The festival has been on the band schedule for many years and it is always a fun event.  The mass march down the moutain is always interesting and fortunately nobody dropped while navigating down the mountain.

It was nice to catch up with our friends from the Columbia & District Pipe Band who were there playing in the grade 4 event.

Overall the band placed 5th out of 7 bands.  Piping judges heard things a bit differently as we got a 2nd and 7th, 2nd in ensemble and 3rd in drumming.
