There are 12 baton bearers in New Cumnock, with Rhona O'Neill the first to carry the baton.
Kate MacKenzie emailed to say: "Great to see the baton pass through a sunblessed Ayrshire! Looking forward particularly to seeing it in my home town, Kilmarnock, of which I have happy childhood memories."
Gordon Campbell also got in touch to say: "Looking forward to seeing the baton in my original home town of Mauchline, hope to be at the top of the Burns Monument as the baton passes!
"I used to love climbing to the top when I was young. Not been up the monument in years! Good excuse to pay a visit!"
