Colourful pageant and poignant ceremony

THIS is the last of three Londonderry Sentinel slideshows capturing the colour and spectacle of the annual Apprentice Boys of Derry parade in Londonderry on August 11 in the city centre.

This year over 140 bands were involved in the parade and around 15,000 Apprentice Boys stepped out.

We hope you enjoy seeing the slideshows. The pictures are also in the current issue of the Londonderry Sentinel dated August 15, 2012, and to order copies of any photographs simply telephone 028 7134 8889 and quote the relevant code.

Frequently the Londonderry Sentinel is fortunate to receive pictures from readers keen to have their community parades and other events included in our weekly publication.

The Sentinel staff are delighted that the paper can now add video and slideshow picture presentations online to its range of media, and we welcome short videos and picture packages of between 10 and 15 photographs from readers covering every aspect of community life, from the annual parades to nursery school ‘graduations’, or flower festivals to special church services and family celebrations.
