Super Civic Week a huge success

The celebrations for Kilsyth Civic Week continued across the town with many activities for all the family to enjoy.

From sporting tournaments to a street party, the events were all aimed at bringing the community together. With this year’s theme being superheroes and legends, those unsung heroes in the community were recognised with special awards.

Nominations were made by members of the public for those within the community who go above and beyond the call of duty to help others.
