== History ==
The Rhode Island Highlanders were formed in 1948 by a group of veterans of World War II in order to preserve the traditional music of Scotland and Ireland.
There have been 4 past pipe majors of the band. The first, John Everett MacLean, led the band to many victories in competitions in the US and Canada.Under Alexander R. Glen, the second P/M, the band became a recreational band focused more on teaching then competing. The third, John Sullivan, transformed the band from a recreational unit into a nationally recognized competitive Pipe Band of some distinction with many trophies and awards to its credit. The fourth and current Pipe Major is Debbie Kane. She has worked valiantly and taken a broken band in threat of disbanding and turned it around for an amazing second season where the band took home the 1st Place prize for its grade in the Eastern United States Pipe Band Association. The Grade 4 band is also currently directed by Pipe Sargent Bob Reid and Drum Sargent Brad Livingston. The Grade 5 band is led by Playing Instructors Dan Pisowloski and Joey MacGregor. The Executive Officers are President Wallace Coburn, Secretary Lauren Boyce, and Treasurer Morven Boyce.
