Who We Are:
The Celtic Pipeline has been in operation since September 1997 in
Edmonton, and since 2002
in Calgary. Our goal is to
provide the pipers,
drummers and pipe bands of Alberta and beyond
with a source of knowledgeable
service, quality products
and reasonable prices.
The face of the Celtic Pipeline in Edmonton is Arnie Stone with the
Calgary shop
being run by daughter Monica Marchi and son-in-law Garret Marchi .
Arnie began his piping career in Vancouver with the teaching of P.M. Edmond Esson MBE and
won many
solo piping prizes and band contests with the
Seaforth Highlanders of
Canada.
Arnie was a founding
member of the
Grade I Alberta Caledonia Pipe Band, and competed with
them for many years. Upon leaving Alberta Caledonia, Iain MacCrimmon and Arnie co-founded the
Big Rock Pipe Band of which Arnie was pipe major for many years. Following retirement from
Big
Rock, he was head
instructor of the Edmonton Boys Pipe Band for six years.
When the Edmonton Public School Board opened Vimy Ridge Academy in
September 1999,
Arnie was approached and accepted the position of head of the pipe band option.
Monica is a piper as well, having played with the Big Rock Pipe Band in Edmonton and the
Calgary Scottish Pipe Band in Calgary.
Monica, Garret and Arnie welcome your inquires and look forward to being
of service to the
piping and drumming community for many years to come.
