Civic Week





The first full week in August is Coldstream's chance to let go and have some fun. Begun in the 1950's to co-incide with the Festival of Britain, civic week has continued without a break and is the focus for the Band's activities.
The Thursday of the week is Flodden Day, which is rapidly becoming a media event, partly because it is a little interesting and it's a good news story in a quiet time of the year. Nevertheless, we get on the telly and it provides a great chance for rival bloggers to give Castram a good slagging.

On a cold day in November some pictures borrowed from http://www.coldstream-scotland.co.uk/civicweek_photos.html are a reminder of sunnier times.
