Battalion secretary Yvonne Duthie attended a Fayre at Fraserburgh North School on Thursday afternoon to promote the Boys’ Brigade. The fayre was promoting opportunities for after school clubs/organisations in the Fraserburgh area.
Our President led a delegation of 8 members and 5 officers at the Braemar Gathering and Highland Games Centre yesterday, supporting Aberdeen & District Battalion – The Boys’ Brigade annual stewarding duties.
One of our members, Tayler (1st Rosehearty) had the distinction of being presented with the 140 Baton by His Majesty the King with two others, Ruary and Kaelyn, in the presentation party. A day to remember for sure and we look forward to meeting the baton again.
As can be seen in the photos, as well as meeting the King and the Queen some of our members bumped into a few famous faces!
