Tonight (Thursday, November 5) saw a fabulous show of fire and fireworks from Cowal Golf Club - with Over £2,500 spent on the 25-minute extravaganza of bangs, whistles, thunder and a kaleidoscope of blazing colour. The community event is continually growing - and fast becoming a unmissable date on the Cowal calendar.
