Plea to track down title-winning Fife scouts for a reunion almost 50 years on
A team of scouts from Fife planning a reunion need help to track down two members.
In 1967 the recently established 115th Fife (Torbain) Scouts entered the Kirkcaldy District competition for outdoor pursuits & camping - and came last.
The following year two of the survivors, Patrol Leader Charlie "Chic" Orr - pictured third right - and Bill Gilby (left) were determined this wouldn't happen again.
In 1968 a new patrol entered and came first, and went on to win the competition three years in a row, culminating in securing the Fife County Flag in 1970.
Now those involved are planning a reunion photo, but need to track down two members.
They want to trace John Simpson - pictured second left - who may have pursued a career in dentistry, and Charlie Orr, who worked for Lothian & Borders Police.
Others in the photo are Andy Wishart (third left), Tom Brown, Ken Gilbert, Scout Leader Ross Kerr, and District Commissioner David Robertson.
