On Friday 23rd January the Dunblane Burns Youth Club held their annual Burns Supper.
The evening was an outstanding success with 17 young people entertaining an audience of 80. These young people, aged between
10 and 17, showed their ability in speeches, recitations, singing and musical ability .They had obviously rehearsed well and the audience were enthusiastic and appreciative.
The performers were younger than usual with eight boys
and girls under twelve years of age. Kirsty Morrison, Ruby Ginoris and Archie McKechnie showed there talent with wonderful ability on their chosen instruments. Cora and Ailsa Erkine, Anna Steen, Matthew McKinney and Ryan Wilson sang beautifully and Holly Jarvis, Ellen Pennie, Ross Dillon, Calum Mitchell and Hamish Diamond made learning poetry seem easy especially Hamish who gave us an impeccable rendering of Tam O` Shanter.
There is no doubt that the quality of entertainment is as good if not better than any adult Burns supper.
Scott Cocker was a fi rst class Chairman. He had the audience in convulsions of laughter and was alert to each young person`s ability. He has been secretary for a few years and will be missed as he heads for university.
Nora and her team once again served up supper and must be complimented on getting really hot food on the table as well her organisational skills.
We thank John Hill for his Haggis, Irene Flaws for her fl owers, Irn Bru and Highland Spring for their much appreciated donations. To all who contributed to a superb evening-our thanks.
Nancy McLaren thanks all who gave her a standing ovation to show their appreciation for the last eight years of preparing the young people for their Burns Supper. This would be her last year. Her contribution to this annual event has been immense in both time and enthusiasm. She has certainly set the bar high for those who will follow in her footsteps!
