This photograph shows the North Bay Pipes and Drums, under the direction of Drum Major
Dan Lachance, marching down Cassells Street as they lead the annual North Bay Canada Day
parade in 2000.
From 1927 to 2003, the pipe band participated in North Bay’s annual Dominion, and later
Canada, Day parades. For many of those years, it was the band that led the parade from
Chippewa Street, down Cassells, across Main Street West to Memorial Drive, to its end at Lee
Park…a long parade on hot days. This parade was replaced by a waterfront event in 2004
where the band participated in a short parade and concert.
