MSP RECOGNISES SEAFEST SUCCESS IN PARLIAMENT

Moray’s MSP, Richard Lochhead, has tabled a motion in the Scottish Parliament recognising the success of the third Seafest, which took place at the weekend.  Mr Lochhead commended the work of the committee in making the event a success.

The text of the motion is as follows:

“That the Parliament recognises the success of the third Seafest in Lossiemouth, which is a week-long series of events in the town; commends Donna Milne, the chair of Seafest, and her team of volunteers for the great organisation of a packed programmed of events, culminating in a food and drink fayre showcasing the best of Moray produce; notes that, among others, Lantern of the North, an initiative devised to give young people from Moray a platform to perform music, provided entertainment to the thousands of attendees; believes that the community event has gone from strength to strength each year, and wishes the Seafest committee success in organising the 2017 event.”

Commenting, Moray’s MSP said:

“It was great to see so many people turn out in Lossie at the weekend to support Seafest.  The atmosphere in the town was fantastic as those who attended soaked up the musical entertainment and enjoyed the best of Moray’s food and drink produce.

“The committee and the volunteers do an incredible job and work very hard to make Seafest a success.  They can all be very proud of overseeing an event which goes from strength to strength and they certainly deserve this recognition for their efforts.”
