Come along to see our new Cornet elected, 8pm this evening at Lauder Town Hall

Sadly the level of bookings received to date means that we’ve had to take the difficult decision to cancel our planned Fun Ride on Sunday 17th May.

Huge thanks to those that had booked, and to those volunteers and helpers that had committed their time.

Less than two weeks to go before we meet the 2026 Lauder Cornet!
