For $50, members of the Ogden Legion Pipe Band, dressed in full highland regalia, will visit a lucky Mom’s house on May 10 or 11 for a personal performance. They will also leave behind a rose and some chocolates for her to enjoy on her special day.

The Mother’s Day event is one of the main fundraisers for the decorated band, which was formed in 1972 as a Calgary area youth pipe band with members ages eight to 18 years. Sponsored by the Royal Canadian Legion, Ogden Branch No. 154 in southeast Calgary, the Ogden Legion Pipe Band has become a top-calibre band that competes nationally and internationally. It has been the Grade IV provincial champions for the past five consecutive years and has also won major awards and honours in Canada and Scotland.

Proceeds from the Mother’s Day Pipes and Roses event will help to send the Ogden Legion Pipe Band to Glasgow, Scotland, in August 2008 to compete in the World Pipe Band Championships.

To book a Mother’s Day piper, call 686-4488 or 464-7212. For more information about the Ogden Legion Pipe Band, visit its website at www.olpb.ab.ca.
