On the 6th April, 2002 history was made as over 7,800 pipers and drummers including officers of the NYPD, Port Authority Police and FDNY marched up 6th Avenue, Manhattan, in a salute to New York and to celebrate Tartan Day. In the footsteps of heroes and led by Sir Sean Connery, players from 26 countries and every state of the United States of America, gathered for one of the biggest pipe band parades ever staged. They triumphed in raising a record-breaking amount of money for Gilda's Club Worldwide and Marie Curie Cancer Care.
