Piper's Gathering 2006

[wgority]

Friends of the Pipers' Gathering,

Registration time is nearly upon us! As we prepare to open registration
in May for the 2006 Gathering, we're pleased to announce our instructors
as well as the launch of our new website.

2006 INSTRUCTORS:

We have a great lineup of instructors for 2006. In response to the 2005
survey results, we've expanded our Border pipe instruction, and have added
instruction on English pipes and whistle.

Uilleann Pipes: Jerry O'Sullivan, David Power, Debbie Quigley

Scottish smallpipes: Annie Grace, Iain Mac Harg

Northumbrian smallpipes: Ian Lawther, Chris Ormston

Border Pipes: Hamish Moore, Jon Swayne

English Pipes: James Merryweather

Whistle: Andrea Mori

Accordion: Becky Price

NEW WEBSITE ONLINE:

Our website has received a major overhaul, with a fresh new look, improved
navigation, and more information about your favorite piping event. The
site is about 99% complete, and we expect to fill in the gaps shortly.
We're excited about our new look, and we hope you will be too. Check it
out at <http://www.pipersgathering.org>

Thanks to our webmeister, Steve Eubanks, for a tremendous job in putting
the new site together.
