Pipe Band Championships volunteers wanted

A PUBLIC meeting is being held in Forres tonight (Tuesday) to encouarge volunteers to come forward for the European Pipe Band Championships which are being held in Forres for three years starting in 2013.

The organising committee of Forres Events Limited who made the successful bid, backed by the Benromach Distillery are seeking willing volunteers to take on a wide variety of roles in the organisation and execution of the championships.

The event will see pipe bands from all over Europe descend on Grant Park during the last weekend in June.

All willing volunteers are being asked to attend an open meeting in The Tolbooth tonight starting at 7pm.
