Knockhill Armed Forces Appreciation Day – Four Wheels – Sunday 21st June

Knockhill with partners within the Forces and owners of supercars in Scotland are jointly organising a MASSIVE day of fun for all members of our fantastic and often underappreciated Armed Services and their families on Sunday 21st June. The Armed Forces Appreciation Days (there is a second one the following weekend at a motorbike meeting on Sunday 28th June) is to bring us all together as a community of car owners and friends, as well as the wider population to show all of our servicemen and women in all three Forces that all of the efforts and sacrifice made over the past few years in Afghanistan and Iraq has not gone unnoticed.
