Dunfermline Childrens Gala 2012

109th Dunfermline Children’s Gala Programme

Welcome from the Chair :

L

iane Horder

The 109th Gala Day is here and I hope you are all ready to compete in the Galympics.

Once again the Gala Committee have been busy fundraising throughout the year. In September a spectacular sight could be seen as children of all ages (some over 30!!) cycled, pushed prams and scootered round the Glen. Our annual Wheels in the Park was a huge success. Thank you to everyone who took part.

On a cold frosty night in December children from 11 primary schools gathered to sing at our Christmas Concert at the Alhambra Theatre. The standard of the children’s singing was amazing and together with brilliant compering from Clark Stewart it was a night to remember. Everyone left in a festive mood. Thank you to all the children, teachers, volunteers and the audience for making this night so special.

Last month we held a Zumbathon, supported by Bannatynes. We had a good turn out with as many children taking part as adults. There was a great atmosphere and the energy throughout the morning was electric. Well done to everyone who took part.

Once again FMC Technologies is our main sponsor. We can’t thank them enough for their continuing support. As our main sponsor they always accept the challenge of judging our Brochure Cover Competition. This is no easy task as the standard of the artwork is always very high. Congratulations to our winner Rachel McGrath from Pitreavie Primary School.

I have to thank all the school reps for all their hard work not only on Gala Day but throughout the year. Special thanks have to go to the Executive Committee and especially Ruth Young, Janetta McGuire and Angela Heyes who have worked tirelessly throughout the year. At times this has been stressful but as testimony to them we have managed to laugh, giggle and enjoy the whole process.

Lastly I would like to thank you for taking time to take part in our event.

Hope you have a wonderful day and remember the Gala is not just for Kids!

The

Galympics

are Here!!

On your Marks, Get Set, Go!!!

The Galympics are coming to Dunfermline!!!

In celebration of London 2012, the “Galympics” will be arriving in Dunfermline on 23rd June and it’s sure to be a Gold Medal winning event!! We have an amazing line up which will not only provide fun and entertainment but also showcase some of the fantastic sports groups we have in the area.

We are once again thrilled that Lady Elgin, our patron will lead off the parade, closely followed by 3 of our young sporting stars; Mark Szaranek, Owen Miller and Caroline Weir. We are honoured they are taking part in our parade and wish them every success for the future. (See a brief biography of their achievements later in the brochure).

Heading up the entertainment is our Galympic Torch!

The winning designer of the brochure cover will be assisting with this important task, ensuring the flame doesn’t go out before we get to the Glen to light the Olympic Fire Sculpture and mark the opening of the afternoon!!!!

We have the Olympic Ring Stiltwalkers who will bring the WOW factor to the front of the parade. Each represents one of the Olympic rings, providing a colourful extravaganza at the start of the parade.

As always, music will be a major theme in the parade, with a variety of Brass and Pipe Bands, Les Wood Dixielanders and Saltire Beat. We once again have Sambayabamba, who we fondly refer to as the Gala House Band!!! They will also be performing in the afternoon, so make sure you 8

get your place early as they always draw a huge crowd.

Injecting some athleticism into the parade are The Spartans Gymnasts, who will also be performing in the afternoon along with the Dardas Diamonds. We will be amazed by their skill and dexterity and hopefully encouraged to take up an activity ourselves! We are honoured to also be able to include a selection of Dunfermline Sports Groups, including the Dunfermline Tennis Club, Dunfermline Reigns Basketball Team, Dunfermline Cycling Club, Carnegie Swimming Club and Dunfermline Badminton Club.

There will lots of laughter when Tour de Farce ‘cycle’ through the town; a unique cycling team who have been experiencing a few problems with their bikes!!! They will be joined by the Olympic Vegetables; Runner Bean and his trusted sidekick Crying Onion who seem to have taken a wrong turn on their way to London!!! Watch out for them in the afternoon too as they will be joining in with the Olympic Circus which kicks off the afternoon entertainment.

Some elegance will be brought by the Flag Poi Stiltwalkers who will delight everyone with their wonderful performance. Your breath will be taken away by the stunning stiltwalking acrobats who’s gravity defying skills will get everyone cheering for more.

As well as all of this amazing entertainment we will also have 4 local young bands at the Louise Carnegie Gates from Tower House Community Centre, charity and other stalls, kids fun fair, bouncy castles, beat the goalie and much much more.

So get your trainers on and come along to the best event in town!!!

Ruth Young, Dunfermline Children’s Gala Secretary “Never underestimate the power of dreams and the influence of the human spirit. We are all the same in this notion: The potential for greatness lives within each of us.”

Wilma Rudolph, Athlete.

Our Sporting Stars Dunfermline’s sporting talent is something we should all be proud of. Here are just a few of our up and coming stars; Craig Rodgie - Craig won Gold at the 2009 European Swimming Championships and is a member of the men’s relay team holding a number of world records in the 4 x 100 Medley and the 4 x 200 Freestyle. He has been nominated for the Paralympic Swimming Team for London 2012 and we all wish him luck!

Gemma Nicol - Gemma was the youngest ever member selected for the Scottish Commonwealth Team. She has been the Scottish 400m Sprint Champion 3 times and is aiming to represent Scotland in the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

Ewan Dyer - Ewan is the 3 times Scottish Schools 400m Hurdles Champion and has also taken the Scottish Under 17s 400m Hurdles Title in 2011. Last year, he broke the Pitreavie Athletics Club record which has stood for 36 years.

She won the Silver Medal at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi and is hoping to represent GB at the 2012 London Olympics, we wish her all the best.

These young people have obviously taken inspiration from some of Fife’s past sporting heros. Here are just a few you may remember; Phil Caira – “Scotland’s Wonder Boy” - Phil won Gold in weightlifting at the 1958 Commonwealth Games and again in the 1962 Games. He was the first lifter in Britain to press more than 100lbs over his bodyweight.

Menzies Campbell - Menzies has represented GB at the 1964 Olympics and the 1966 Commonwealth Games. He held the British 100 metres record from 1967 to 1974 and at one time was known as the “Fastest White Man on the Planet”.

22

Alister ‘Jock’ Allan - Alister won the Scottish Shooting Championships 6 times.

He has won 3 Gold, 4 Silver and 3 Bronze in 5 consecutive Commonwealth Games in the 1970s and 80s. He also represented GB 5 times in the Olympics, winning Bronze and Silver.

Meg Ritchie - Meg still holds the Women’s Outdoor Track and Field and British records for discus/shotput. She won Gold in the 1982 Commonwealth Games.

Linsey MacDonald – “The Fife Flyer” - Linsey set the British Junior record of 51.16 seconds for the 400 metres, which still stands today. At 16, Linsey represented GB at the 1980 Olympics, securing Bronze in the women’s 4 x 400m relay. She went on to represent Scotland at the 1982 Commonwealth Games where she again won Bronze.

Paul Noble - Paul competed in an amazing 5 successive Paralympics in the 80s and 90s. He has won a staggering 4 Gold, 9 Silver and 2 Bronze Olympic Medals. He has captained GB’s Swimming Squad and has broken and held 2 Paralympic records.

Andrew Lindsay - Andrew won Swimming Silver at the 1996 Paralympics, Gold at the 2000 Games and Gold at the 2004 Games. Andrew held the World Record for the 100m Backstroke for a staggering 10 years.

Tracy Wiscombe - Tracy won Gold at the 1996 Paralympics in both the 50m and 100m Swimming Freestyle, smashing the world records in the process.

She won Silver and Bronze in the 2000 Games. Many of her records still stand today.

Caroline Baird - Caroline’s contribution to Disability Athletics earned her an MBE. She won Gold in the 100m sprint at the 1992 Paralympics, Gold in the 1996 Games and Gold in the 200 and 400m sprint and Silver in the 100m in 2000.

William McQueen - William twice broke the world record for the 50m crawl.

He competed in the 1992 Paralympics, winning a Gold and Bronze medal.

Debbie Knox - Debbie was part of the most famous Curling Teams in Scottish history. She was part of the team who won Gold at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, causing the population of Scotland to stay up til the wee hours to watch the historic win.
