Thank you to the Royal Burgh of Peebles Callants Club

Big thank you to the Royal Burgh of Peebles Callants Club for their work last weekend to make out Burgh look the best for its big week ahead.

A great turnout from the Callants on Sunday for our annual Beltane High Street cleanup, working our way from Tweed Bridge all the way up the High Street.

We also had a wee hand this year from the Peebles Monday Beavers who helped clean up the area down Pennels Close, so a big thanks to them.

A big thanks also to The Green Tree Hotel and Linton Bakes who fed and watered us with Filled rolls, cakes and hot drinks, as you can see it was much appreciated.
