Perth Kirkin Of The Council 2013

Pictures here from the 2013 Kirking of the Council, which this year took a different route, and was also expanded.

As usual the Perth & District Pipe Band lead the civic procession to St John's Kirk and back again. This year's procession included representatives from all the emergency services and the NHS. For the first time, the Lord Provost of Dundee City Council and the Provost of Angus Council participated in the civic procession. The Vice Chancellor of UHI and the Principal and Assistant Principal of Perth College UHI also walked the route, along with the High Constables of Perth, the Lord Dean of Guild and members of the Merchant Guild of Perth.

In the congregation for the Kirking service at St John's were representatives from all over Perth and Kinross: community groups, businesses, cultural groups, teachers and head pupils from local secondary schools, and charities.
