The Pipes and Drums of the Atlantic Watch History Founded in 1993, the Pipes and Drums of the Atlantic Watch is a family-oriented group of over 100 performers. The Atlantic Watch emulates the Black Watch Royal Highland Regiment of Scotland. The uniform is modeled after authentic regimental issue.
Dancers wear a variety of clan tartans with white blouses.
The color guard bears the American flag, the Atlantic Watch standard, St. Andrews Cross, the Welsh flag, and the British battle standard. While its roots are Scottish, the Atlantic Watch is distinctly American in its diversity. Members are men and women ages 5 to 75, representing a wealth of ethnic, religious, and professional backgrounds. One of the pipers is visually impaired. This medley of peoples combines to create a harmony of music and dance that would be a unique facet to any event.
