Thanks go to everyone who attended our 118th Annual Inspection and Display which took place on May 15th.
We were delighted to welcome such a large turnout for the occasion from boys’ families to members of the Church and former members of the Company.
The programme featured a range of items that reflected our weekly activities, which for Company Section included drill, vaulting, bugle band and games.
The highlight of the evening was four of our senior boys – Ethan Wallker-Reid, John Luca Mackay, Robert Buchan and Daniel Gillatt – being awarded their King’s Badge, the highest award in the Brigade, whilst Ruairidh Fleming received his President’s Badge.
Congratulations also goes to Andrew Strachan, who won the main individual prize, the Award for Efficiency, whilst the Squad Challenge Prize was this year won by Squad #3 commanded by John Luca Mackay.
Our Inspecting Officer for the evening was Rev. Dez Johnston, President of The Boys’ Brigade. Thanks also go to George Mackay for chairing the evening and to Gordon Smith for playing the piano during the hymns.
There are still some upcoming events in the calendar, with the bugle band playing at the Glasgow Battalion King’s Badge Parade on May 28th and a trip to Foxlake Adventure Park being planned for June.
Attention will then turn to Summer Camp which takes place at the Lagganlia Outdoor Centre near Aviemore from August 7-10.
