Special Events
Here you will find detail on special events associated with the Fife and Drum community.
On June 3rd at 10 am, we will gather at The Company of Fifers & Drummers Museum to celebrate Richard Ruquist's extraordinary life and the profound impact he had on each of us. This historic venue holds a special significance, reflecting Richard's passion for music and preserving the cultural heritage he cherished.
During the gathering we will share heartfelt stories, memories, and anecdotes that capture the essence of Richard's vibrant spirit. In line with Richard's love for music, we have arranged for poignant musical performances that will touch our hearts and pay homage to his deep appreciation for the music and tradition we share, and there will, of course, be an opportunity for a lively jam session. Food and drink will be provided.
Your presence and participation in this commemoration would mean the world to us as we find strength and comfort in our shared remembrance.
