BCPA announces 2018 Grand Aggregate Award Winners
The British Columbia Pipers Association concluded its season at the Pacific Northwest Highland Games, July 28-29, at the Enumclaw Expo Center in Enumclaw, Washington, and with it the organization presented its Grand Aggregate Award winners. With Vancouver-based Dowco Triumph Street devoting their attention to competitions in the UK, the Simon Fraser University Pipe Band was effectively unchallenged in Grade 1.
The Pacific Northwest Highland Games were held in hot weather, part of an extended drought in the Pacific Northwest.
