We will have cadets from several organisations, Phoenix Pipes and Drums and Mike Wabe, our Town Cryer, to make proclamations.

At 20.40 we will ask everyone to join our procession down to Loch Neaton where Mike will read the official proclamation and our new Mayor, Don Saunders, will say some words about D Day. At 21.15 we will join in the nationwide lighting of the beacons with the lighting of the Loch Neaton beacon.

All are welcome.
