The Kate Kennedy Procession 2k17 Rides Forth

Ameer Chughtai observes the historic tradition.

On a beautiful April afternoon, the Kate Kennedy Club hosted their procession, the famed St Andrean tradition, featuring an eclectic mix of traditional clothing and historical references to the town fabled past.

This year’s event also marked the 91st anniversary of the event, with its origins dating back to the middle of the 16th century. As well as holding the title of Scotland’s oldest historical pageant, the procession was originally conceived as an ode to Lady Katherine Kennedy. The much-adored Lady is played by a first-year student, whose identity is kept a closely guarded secret until the morning of the procession itself.

The path of the ceremony brought it from its start outside at St Salvator’s Chapel, North Street, through Union Street to Market, eventually turning to South via Bell Street and bringing it back to its original starting point; allowing the entire town to witness the full extent of the parade.

The event was done on a grandiose scale, including horse-drawn carriages, bagpipers in full tartan, and a choir. The event participants were also dressed in full regalia, with some wearing traditional red robes, historical dresses, and even a few horse riders dressed in a full suit of armour. Furthermore, the procession included a large array of shields, representing differing periods within St Andrews’ history. These included a Jacobite flag, one of Colonial Canada, and the familiar crest of St Salvator.

The procession showcases the history of the town and the university, including famed residents and alumni. These include the original St Andrew, wearing the Hellenic cross upon which he suffered; in addition to this, there included Mary Queen of Scots, J.S Mill, Rudyard Kipling, and the more recent John Cleese and Arnold Palmer.

Lastly, the Kate Kennedy Club sold “College Echoes,” a rough guide and list of the events that unfolded throughout the day. The proceeds of these sales were donated to local Fife Charities, including Home-Start Fife, Children First, and Worldwide Cancer Research.

  1. I’m not sure why but this site is loading very slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a issue on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.

  2. I’m really enjoying the theme/design of your weblog. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues? A couple of my blog readers have complained about my site not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Firefox. Do you have any recommendations to help fix this problem?

  3. I have realized some points through your site post. One other subject I would like to state is that there are plenty of games out there designed mainly for toddler age small children. They include pattern acceptance, colors, dogs, and patterns. These commonly focus on familiarization as opposed to memorization. This makes children and kids engaged without feeling like they are learning. Thanks

  4. When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Thank you!

  5. It is perfect time to make some plans for the future and it’s time to be happy. I’ve read this post and if I could I want to suggest you few interesting things or suggestions. Maybe you can write next articles referring to this article. I desire to read even more things about it!

  9. I not to mention my pals were taking note of the excellent helpful tips located on your web page and suddenly got a terrible suspicion I had not expressed respect to the website owner for those techniques.

    Namecheap is a really popular web hosting company that is global they have over 11 million registered users.

They have a bunch of other software and security tools as well like SSL certificates. If your gonna buy from Namecheap, just do yourself a favor and use a coupon from our site… it takes a moment to find one and you will save some money.
    Some ways to save at Namecheap
    New customer discounts

    If your a new customer you get access to a lot of discouns and promo codes that are not normally available like coupons giving 50% off and 1 USD .com domains. Some really juicy stuff for real. Usually it depends on the product you are purchasing. Businesses and individuals can use these discounts and promo codes from Namecheap.com, but I think most businesses never use the codes… im not really sure why. There are some special coupons you can find on alternative sites there was a recent promo code that gave over 60% off a one-year VPN service. They have good products so I imagine the VPN would be pretty fast for a cheap price. Win.

    Troubleshooting your promo code

    We make sure our promo codes work all the time. However sometimes they are updated for whatever reason at Namecheap or other issues might arise. Make sure if your typing in the promo code correctly.

    Also sometimes you need to purchase a certain type of product. Lets say your code is for a .com domain, and your purchasing a .net domain the discount code will not work.

    Namecheap’s website will often tell you the error and reason for why the promo code is not working as well.

  27. Thanks for your posting. One other thing is the fact that individual states in the United states of america have their own laws that will affect people, which makes it very, very hard for the our lawmakers to come up with the latest set of rules concerning foreclosures on homeowners. The problem is that a state possesses own legal guidelines which may interact in an undesirable manner in terms of foreclosure procedures.
