Kessler takes stand at Glenfinnan
Glenfinnan, Scotland – August 16, 2008 – While most of the competing piping world was busy at the World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow, a handful of soloists made it to the Glenfinnan Highland Gathering, where results were scattered.
In the Junior piping competitions, Robyn Gray of Calgary won all three events (Piobaireachd, March and Strathepey & Reel), earning her the Oban Times Quaich and a scholarship for a week’s tuition at the National Piping Centre.
