If you are interested in joining the Sons of Scotland as a piper or drummer, drop us a line. Our history dates back to 1896, but the mandate stays the same - provide free instruction to those who wish to learn, and then go into the community to present that music. We welcome players to get in touch about lessons, and come out when they are ready to join our classes.
E-mail the Pipe Major, Bethany Bisaillion at sospb@sospb.com for information on coming out and what you need before you do!
To book the band, send an email to Band Manager Donald MacDonald at Donald@sospb.com

A Historic Pick: Joe Biden Taps Rep. Deb Haaland as First Native American Interior Secretary
Excellent news! This is a powerful statement after the endless outrages of the historically bigoted Trump administration: Rep. Deb Haaland to be first Native American interior secretary.
With his pick, Biden heeded the call of an eclectic coalition of youth climate activists, tribal leaders, Hollywood celebrities and liberal members of Congress who rallied around Haaland for the Cabinet post, despite her short time in Congress.
Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva (D-Ariz.), who chairs the House Natural Resources Committee and helped lead the campaign on behalf of Haaland, said that “any comment that she’s not qualified for the job is wrong, and a cheap shot.” By selecting Haaland, Grijalva added, Biden is helping “begin to rewrite a legacy in this country. And I think that’s good given everything else that’s going on around us.”

Biden’s decision to appoint Haaland to head Interior will hold profound meaning for the 1.9 million Native Americans whose education and health care are often influenced by the department’s decisions.
