After a long absence of nearly three years, the Pipes and Drums Band of the Edmonton Police Service could not wait to return, and they are coming to Butte July 2-5 to help the city celebrate the 4th of July.
The Fourth of July parade will include the Pipes and Drums Band of the Edmonton Police Service, a group that has been coming to Butte to perform and help celebrate Butte’s Celtic heritage since 1984, 38 years ago.
They will perform at only a few locations throughout Butte for their 4th of July visit.
