The Kimberley Pipe Band is preparing to say goodbye to two band stalwarts on Saturday, September 6. At that time, long-time pipe major Dave Ekskog (36 years) and drummer Gerry Simmonds (14 years) will be honoured for their years of dedication to the Kimberley Pipe Band.

Join Pipe Band members and friends for a dinner at Centennial Hall, where prime rib and haggis (of course) will be on the menu. This is a formal wear event and tickets are $25. You must purchase a ticket by August 30. They will not be available at the door. You can reserve tickets by calling Jim Warriner at 250-432-0025.
