Lary Leghorn Fowler Memorial Competition

Join us for the first annual Lary Fowler Memorial Highland Pipe Competition. The competition will be held on April 26, 2025, during the run of Avalon Faire, our medieval festival in Kilgore, Texas. Lary "Leghorn" Fowler walked the parapet of the front gate for many years piping the opening of the gates every day of the festival. In addition, Lary worked tirelessly helping to build and maintain the infrastructure of our festival grounds. We shall miss him, even as his presence lives on in the music of the highland pipes.

Competitors will be limited to two musical events, your choice from the event categories for each Grade level in the competition. Your registration includes an all-day complimentary admission for you and a companion. Prizes will be cash (TBD), and medals or ribbons for category winners.

The contest shall operate under the rules of the Eastern United States Pipe and Band Association. Use the link above or below to register and pay online. Watch our website, www.avalonfaire.com and follow us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/AvalonFaire) for updates and news about the contest.
