March 2017 Recipients
The Auckland & District Pipe Band received $2,442 for acoustic panelling to help improve the quality of its rehearsal space at Victoria Park.
While the band practice outside when the weather allows, the acoustic dampening panels will create an ideal space to conduct practices indoor, rain or shine.
The band rely on community funding to offer performances to the local community and the Mazda Foundation grant will help ensure it is able to grow and be sustainable in the future.
