Nassau Cnty Police Emerald Society Pipes and Drums
Thank you for posting kind comments concerning our playing on top of the WHM boat. We have been leading the KW Veterans Day Parade or the past four years. Last year one of our members met Billy and offered us to play. This year the same, but with a sad theme. Our band is the name sake for the unit marching/playing, yet we have members of the Suffolk Cnty P/D Band, the Wantagh American Legion P/D Band play with us. The trip is funded out of pocket by band members as a showing of support for our veterans. We enjoy the friendly relationship we have with Billy and his WHM crew. We will be back next year for the parade and hope to play once again for the racers and fans. We said a prayer and played "Amazing Grace" as a tribute to your fellow racers with honor and sadness. Please accept our condolences from the members of the band and Pipe Major Kevin Vahey. If you see us on the street, stop and say hello. Be safe. Mike Bartlett, Band Manager. [email protected]
