Welcome! Welcome to the Home of the Pikes Peak Highlanders Pipes & Drums, Inc. Our Pipe and Drum
organization was founded in 1985 by Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) Major Bob Tracy. The band has enjoyed a long and successful journey as a competition and performance pipe band and has provided the sounds of Great Highland Bagpipes & Scottish Drums to the front range for 27 yrs. Our pipers wear the Prince Charles Edward Stewart tartan (which is the background of this web page) with black doublets, the drummers wear the legendary tartan of the 1st BN Black Watch with red doublets, cords and feather bonnets. The color guard wears the Prince Charles Edward Stewart tartan with red doublets and feather bonnets. Our summer uniform consists of white short sleeve shirts with Royal Canadian epaulets with a traditional Glengarry.
We invite you to become a part of our family. Feel free to browse the site. Enjoy your visit! Please contact us if you have any questions! Our Pipe Major is Shelley Wheelon. Our Drum Sergeant is Mike Bourda.
