A Scottish festival this weekend kicks off with a different kind of event — the festival will honor our local military units and Afghan vets.
Organizer John Campbell tells CHSJ News the parents of Private David Greenslade who was killed in the Afghan conflict two years ago will be the honorary clan chiefs for the event.
Campbell says they will also be raising money for the David Greenslade bursary for children of fallen soldiers.
The event is set to begin tomorrow night at eight at the Chinese Commerce Center on Coburg Street — there is no admission.
