Well, the weather may have been a bit Baltic, to begin with, but our BBQ day was still full of fun and friendship.
It was great to see plotters, volunteers, RGU and MacMillan friends there on the day. Oh, and, by the way, the raffle generated £72 for our GFAA funds. Not bad at all!
Oh boy. I know it’s early in the year but I think we can be pretty sure that the 2018 Award for Most Intrepid Plotters will go to Sepi and Arshia after they were spotted this week enjoying their impromptu BBQ. By the way, could somebody please organise a quick whip-round to get them both a pair of gloves?
Yesterday’s Opening Event for our Outdoor Classroom and new community facilities went exceptionally well – we even managed to dodge all the threatened showers!
Thanks go especially to Rita Callander from Greenspace Scotland who came along to open the Octagon in her role as Community Enabler for Tesco Bags of Help, to Kevin Anderson, Manager of our local TESCO branch for coming along to show his support and to Liz Hancock from RGU, who have provided so much support for the Community Garden over the last five years..
Thanks too to all the plotters, volunteers and friends who worked so hard on the day to make the event a success and to those who could not make it, but contributed raffle prizes and donations.
It was super to have so many friends from The MacMillan Cancer Charity join us. The raffle brought in £146 and proceeds will be split equally between GFAA and MacMillan.
It was great to see so many at our BBQ at the weekend – and especially so many kids. Thanks to Gill for all her hard work organising things and to Michael and Marion for the treasure hunt and Vinny for the trailer tours – always a success!! In fact, thanks to all those who came along and helped make it such a success.
