No, I am not a piper yet. I have been working on the Chanter with the band at work. I come from a long line of Irish/Scottish kilt wearing folks so I can be found in kilt often. Thanks for the link to the survey.
We are under a super strict budget shortfall (as is everyone else) and our Honor Guard is on a voluntary basis. We do not have funds to even pay members for organized practice time, and frankly cannot get members to attend volunteer practice time. We feel only marginally supported by administration, but don't want to push the issue for fear administration will disband the group. We have even been asked not to request any compensation for time used at funerals, parades, etc due to the budget restraints. Thanks for bringing this problem up for discussion.
I received a request through EMS United for a survey that has you as author. I can't find the survey. Can you help?
P.S. Is Dr. Brent Meyers your medical director there? I enjoy his lectures at the Eagles conference every year.
Thanks
