Colin Dawson carries Commonwealth Games baton

Our tireless Junior Convenor and Treasurer, Colin Dawson, all geared up to carry the Queen's Baton this morning. Pictured here absolutely rocking that tracksuit, with some of the many friends he's made through the years at Accies, and with many of his current crop of juniors.

If being selected to carry the Queen's Baton is testimony to the quality and dedication of his work in community amateur sport over the past few decades, the number of people turning up to cheer him on is testimony to the man himself.

Congratulations, Colin, from all of us here at Accies, whether we made it down to watch or not, and thanks to Moira Atkinson for the nomination and all who supported the application.
