78ths in Maxville Yes or No, + More

[NB Piper]

So can anyone tell me with confirmation if the 78th Frasers will be in Maxville this year??? Or are they going to France for the Lorient Festival??? Oh yeah, who else is going for Gr.1 bands other than SFU (Who we know is going already)??? There was rumours about LA Scots and Prince Charles might be attending??? Anyone know???

Word on the Ontario streets is that the 78th's are going to Bridge of Allen, not Maxville, grade one bands to be SFU, Peel, Toronto Police and COW. Anyone I missed, feel free to add. Heard the biggie contest is going to be grade 2. Big grade, gonna be the one to watch! :thumb:

Grade 2 will be the one to watch this year at Maxville.
With bands like:
Chicago Cal.
North Coast
Celtic Flair
Fredricton
Niagara
Tulluch Ard
Rob Roy
Midlothian Metro
and many more.
These are the ones I am pretty sure will be there.

Should be a good one

I heard that the 78th are not planning on going over to France and that they will be in Maxvile to compete. Maybe one of the boys from 78th could reply to this post and end all the rumors and confusion...
And there are many more bands that are going to Maxville in grade 2 that should be a good contender, such as:
Saffron United
Monaghan PB
Oran Mor
Windsor Police
Dartmouth and District
