Lodge Inveraray Donates Funds To Strachur Pipers
The brethren of Lodge Inveraray St. John No. 50 held a raffle at their annual Installation in January in memory of the late Angus Paterson of Strachur, which raised the sum of £300. Angus was a well-loved member of the Lodge and the driving force behind the monthly raffles raising funds for local and national charities and good causes over many years.
It was decided that his widow, Margaret, should be asked to nominate a local good cause to donate the proceeds of this raffle to and she chose the Strachur Piping Association where Angus had also been a member and a past president. On Friday 24th March 2017 several of the brethren of the Inveraray Lodge travelled to Strachur to present the cheque to the Piping Association and a bouquet of flowers to Mrs Paterson.
