Hugh Morrison addresses the haggis at the Kincardine Robbie Burns Night Saturday at the Davidson Centre

Despite the snowy night, a good crowd turned out for the annual Robbie Burns Night, Saturday in the Kincardine Hall at the Davidson Centre.

Hosted by the Kincardine Scottish Pipe Band, the event opened with the Piper's Welcome played by Jennifer Farrell, Mike Smith and Brian Fry.

Don Arscott welcomed everyone and then Steve Wolfe piped in the haggis, with Tom Cole as the haggis-bearer.

Hugh Morrison gave a riveting Address to the Haggis, followed by Cathy Milne leading in grace.

After the meal, Peter Kirkpatrick gave the Immortal Memory, with Scott Duncan offering a toast to the lassies, and Ashley Duncan giving the reply from the lassies.

The program included two sets by the pipe band, Highland dancing, featured piper Glenn Walpole, The Pleats, and a Haggis Toonie Toss.
