The committee and friends gather at Falkirk Trinity Church |
For those of you who have never attended such a ceremony, here is a wee breakdown. We meet at Falkirk Trinity Church around 1pm. Before we march off there are 3 wreaths laid as we remember those who gave everything, we then fall in behind the Uphall Station Pipe Band and at 1.20pm march through the town to the Memorial Cairn in Callander Park for the Ecumenical Commemoration. |
