An ancient celebration held within the Royal Burgh of Lanark on the Thursday between the Sixth and Twelfth days of June annually since the year 1140.
 

The Chairman Of The Lanimer Committee

This is a very special year. We celebrate her Majesty the Queen's Golden Jubilee and the election of our own 100th Lanimer Queen. others are celebrating too. It is Lanark Bowling Club's 150th birthday and the centenary of Coalburn Silver Band. Our celebrations at all levels are the culmination of the hard work and enthusiasm of families, friends and committee, and I thank you all.

Increasing financial burdens continue to be addressed, but I am confident that with goodwill these will be resolved.

This is indeed a special year for 'the Lanimers' - but every Lanimers in special isn't it?

Robert Kirkhope
Chairman, Lanark Lanimer Committee
