These pipes are being built and donated by Richard and Anita Evans. You can see examples of their fine work on their website at <http://www.evansweb.co.uk> The pipes will be offered for sale through a silent auction that will begin on Saturday morning (August 12th) and end just before the concert on Sunday evening (August 13th). You must attend the Pipers' Gathering to bid on these pipes. The winning bidder must be prepared to pay in cash or by certified check before he or she can receive the pipes. So make sure you have the money in the right account before leaving home! Please note that there will be a reserve price set for these pipes. -------------------- The Pipers' Gathering, Inc., presenter of The Pipers' Gathering, is registered as a non-profit corporation in the State of Vermont and is recognized by the United States Internal Revenue Service as a non-profit organization under the provisions of section 501(c)(3) of the federal tax code.
