Cornwall bagpipe band grows from family roots
In Cornwall, Robert J. Howard Jr. learned bagpipes from his father and uncles, turning a school pipe band dream into a family passion. The MacLeod Pipe Band, formed 13 years ago by Alexander Howard Sr, features Scotland imports and competitive success. Robert, now 16, earned third in a New York Irish Feis and plans a Coast Guard Academy career. His family, including drummer Fred and junior Cory, keep the tartan tradition alive as Mrs. Howard watches from the sideline.
