"Remembering James Hunter Blair"

A special memorial event will be held at Blairquhan on Monday, 15th August 2005, to which all are welcome.
 
Starting at 12.00 pm there will be a service of remembrance followed by a 'hog roast' picnic on the lawn. Mr Pat Hunter Blair and his family will plant a tree in Jamie's memory.

The house and garden will be open during the afternoon until 4.00 pm.

In order that we may have some idea of numbers, please indicate your wish to attend by contacting Anne Hay at anne@blairquhan.co.uk or call her on 01655 770239.

We are asking those attending to contribute £12 (or more if you wish) towards the cost of the day. Please send cheques (made payable to Blairquhan Estate) to Blairquhan Estate Office, Maybole, Ayrshire KA19 7LZ.

We are setting up a Memorial Fund for James, to fund bursaries for students from Ayrshire wishing to go to the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama (RSAMD), of which James was an enthusiastic supporter. An appeal to raise money for this Memorial Fund will be launched at Blairquhan on 15th August, when entertainers from the RSAMD will be providing a musical interlude.

NOTICE

PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY!

Due to the large number of people expected at this event, please ensure you arrive in good time. Everyone will need to be parked and seated outside the castle for the start of service at 12.00pm.
