Lord Cornet Elect Edward Pringle is a former Beaver Scout Leader with 2nd Lanark Scouts, through which he was first introduced to Lanimer life by supporting the Lowland Games, a connection further deepened by his current role on the Lanimer Committee as Castlebank Convenor.

He has worked with children and young people as a Pupil Support Assistant at Lanark Grammar School, and now at St Mary’s Primary School.

He has ridden throughout the Borders as part of the Lanark Riding Association.

He has also had fun designing and participating in many Lanimer Processions with The Kilninie Club – Captain Hook being a favourite character.

We would like to wish Edward and his family a very Happy Lanimers!
