White Spot Pipe Band

White Spot Pipe Band The White Spot Pipe Band and Highland Dancers is a youth pipe band (ages 8 to 18). The band practices in Surrey, BC, Canada.

The White Spot Pipe Band and Highland Dancers is a youth pipe band (ages 8 to 18) that has been in continuous operation since 1956. Originally formed by Don Bellamy as the Optimist Junior Pipe Band, the name was changed in 1963 to reflect the generous sponsorship and patronage of Nat Bailey and his White Spot Restaurants. For over 60 years the organization has provided instruction and encouragement to more than 500 young people. Many of the current instructors are former students. In addition to being dedicated to the musical development of youth, the White Spot Pipe Band has always emphasized a commitment to community, personal growth and development, and the preservation of Scottish heritage. In order to underscore community responsibility, the band performs in numerous local events such as Canada Day, Remembrance Day, Sunshine Foundation for kids, and the Cops for Cancer relay. Over the years the band has traveled extensively throughout North America making several feature appearances at the Calgary Stampede and Parade and performing at three World Expositions; Expo ‘62 in Seattle, Expo ’67 in Montreal and Expo ‘86 in Vancouver. White Spot was privileged to be the first pipe band to play at the ‘USS Arizona’ Memorial in Hawaii. The organization promotes both team building and individual growth, urging children to compete in both individual and in band competitions.
