15,000 due at Games

MORE than 15,000 spectators are expected to enjoy caber tossing and other feats of strength at the 15th annual North Berwick International Games next month.

The games feature an international pipe band concert, highland dancing and a parade of bands through the town, as well as traditional sports.

A spokesman for the event, on Saturday, August 7, said: "The Games continues to attract considerable support from the local community but with more and more visitors coming every year, an attendance of 15,000 has become the norm."
