The Hawick Group has evolved into both a plenary group and a series of speciality groups. The Buskers Committee were delighted with the wonderful success of the inaugural Teribuskers festival. The sun on 8th September helped but the main benefit was provided by a wide range of performers and their musical talents shone in the sunlight. Hundreds of people enjoyed a variety of music from a wide range of performers both young and old. Trophies were won, busking pockets bulged and several good causes benefited greatly from the spectacle. Fans of this annual event are already looking forward to a bigger better festival next year, where Laurie Cockburn and Louise Douglas will defend their crowns as champion buskers.
Our next meeting for Teribuskers is to be Sunday 23rd September at 1.30pm in the Melgund Bar for anyone interested in helping us to take it forward into next year.
