Gala Itinerary

Here is the guide for Gala Day 2010. Obviously we hope the sun will shine on Saturday 5th June, but if it doesn't there is a contingency plan to have the crowning of Queen Louise Lochrie in Stonehouse Primary school. The decision on whether to invoke the wet weather plan is solely at the discretion of the Gala Group and that decision is made at 11am on the morning of the Gala day.
