Rock the Rovers

The success of Rock the Rovers 7 was finally realised on Saturday 24th September when the good causes nominated to receive a donation from the funds raised were presented with cheques prior to the match against Ross County. This year’s event took place on Sunday 28th August with 20 bands performing on two stages at Kitty’s and Styx in what is the biggest annual musical event in Kirkcaldy. Over £5,000 was raised and cheques for £500 each were presented to representatives of Kidney Kids Scotland, C.H.A.S, Meningitis Research Foundation, Valley Primary School Additional Support Class and Capability Scotland.
