band.<\/p>\n<p>It was the first public performance by the Burnett Celtic Pipes &amp; Drums, but was also an opportunity for the band members to say &#8220;thank you&#8221; to their hosts.<\/p>\n<p>The group was presented with a cheque for $7500 by the Nanango Services Club and Nanango RSL Sub-Branch.<\/p>\n<p>The Burnett band is being administered by the well-known Murrumba Pipes &amp; Drums Society which have become familiar faces in the South Burnett through their performances at the annual Scots In The Bush celebration at Boondooma Homestead.<\/p>\n<p>Troy Ellis, from the Burnett group, said the aim of the new band was to &#8220;foster a family-orientated fun atmosphere for the members whilst performing at a high level of professionalism and upholding the traditions and showing respect to the Scottish pipe bands of the past&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We also strive to introduce this style of music to the younger generations in the way of tuition, thus providing a gateway for new players to keep this form of music continuing well into the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_355312\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-355312\" style=\"width: 740px\"
