Gala Day- Culter Celebrates!
Gala Day 2006 culminated in a special 5-aside-
game between Friends Reunited and 5B United. The two teams
were battling for the honour of the "Zoe Skea Shield", in memory
of their friend and classmate. A thrilling match was
played out with Sam Barnett scoring an amazing hat-trick
for Friends Reunited (playing in red). 5B United (in blue)
made a terrific recovery and, with goals by Matthew McIntosh,
Steven Mitchell and Stuart Smith, drew level for a truly
well-deserved draw. The two winning captains received
their prize, along with individual trophies for all the players,
from Zoe's best friend Anna Strachan. Anna is
definitely a Hazel Irvine of the future - by keeping me up to
date with all the action as it was played out. Thank you all for
such a memorable match -and, I think, Zoe would have been so
chuffed (particularly with the multi-coloured hair styles!).
The
Culter Gala, organised every year by the Community Council, takes place in
the last week of May at the Culter School Playing Fields.
This year, Gala Day was Saturday 27th May 2006.
PROGRAMME 2006
(Word File) The theme for
the event - "Join the
Circus". We hope you all had a
memorable time on Gala Day 2006. Although there were
one or two heavy showers during the afternoon, the sun soon
dried up the ring for events to continue. Many thanks to Kristin
Gove for opening the event and bringing along the whole
family to enjoy the many stalls and attractions on offer.
Danny McGregor gave a phenomenal display of football skills -
the Culter Pipe Bands, as always, entertained the crowd - the
fantastic enthusiasm of the Casket African Drumming Section
warmed up the onlookers - the Ninja Men (Mark, Laurence and
Adam) fought it out on a rather soggy arena !
