The Batavia Coast Pipe Band was formed in 2002 and incorporated in 2003.
Since then we have equipped all the members and bought equipment using generous grants from LotteryWest, GPR Electrical and fundraising
Acknowledgement must also go to members of WAPOL especially Craig Bailey who has generously given of his time each year to come up to Geraldton-Greenough and run workshops, play with the band at special events and is always available for advice and support. Thank you Craig

We are based in Geraldton-Greenough which is 425K's north of Perth, Western Australia
The beautiful HMAS Sydney memorial makes an excellent skyline for the city and it is always a pleasure to play here

The band tartan is The Flower of Scotland which was created as a tribute to the late Roy Williamson, writer of the words and music of Scotland's national song "Flower of Scotland" |
