The Town of Rothesay is giving the royal treatment to a friend from across the pond. Photographer Judy Parrot arrived over the weekend to spend eight days in the town that bears the same name as her’s. Parrot is from Rothesay, Scotland and the two municipalities are connected through the Cultural Connect Scotland Project. Parrot will meet with business, home-owners, seniors, churches to look at the community through the eyes of someone who has never been here before.
This is also the week of the Big Rothesay Read with several things on the go including a visit from the author of the book Ishmael Bee-ah “”Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier””. It was handed out to over 600 students in District Six to encourage reading and get people talking last month.
