The CCSO Pipe and Drum Corps is an all-volunteer organization sponsored by the Clay County Sheriff's Office. Founded in the Spring of 2009, the CCSO Pipes and Drums is the first and only law enforcement pipe band located in north-central Florida. While the band is still new, its membership is growing rapidly as new and talented pipers and drummerss join its ranks.
The only requirement to join the CCSO Pipes and Drums is the desire and motivation to learn and play the bagpipes or drums. Free lessons are provided weekly by qualified instructors to anyone who is willing to learn. Once a new member has become proficient in their chosen instrument, then they may formally join the band with the approval of the Pipe Major and begin performing with the group.
The band meets every Thursday for practice at the Orange Park Presbyterian Church in Clay County, Florida. Individual lessons begin as early as 6pm, with full-band practice beginning at 6:30pm.
If you are interested in joining, please come by a practice or email info@claysheriffpipes.org and we can provide you with additional information.
