We’re in the final sprint of funding for the Community Park Project! We were successful in our application to the UK Shared Prosperity Community pot, and have been awarded a whopping £40,000. We’re only about £15,000 away from our target. The old equipment at the site has been removed, the legals are being thrashed out and we should be ready to purchase the equipment and book an installation date soon. Keep your eyes peeled for upcoming volunteer days – we will be doing a bit of tidying up and sowing grass seed in the next month or so, and hope to hold a fun event on site in the summer to make up to the kids for taking away what was left of the equipment!
Don’t miss Duirinish Media and Culture Club’s screening of Disney’s ‘Wish’ at Dunvegan Community Hall, sponsored by Dunvegan Taxis, Isle Drive, Kenny’s Garage and The Old School Restaurant, to raise funds for the park. It’s on the 20th of April at 2:30pm, with hot dogs and ice cream on sale, and we’ll also be drawing a fabulous raffle there! Raffle Tickets will be on sale at Kenny’s Garage, Dunvegan, The Caledonian Cafè in Portree and more shops around the island. Top prizes are a Landmark Family ticket, 2 x Adult Belladrum weekend tickets, 2 x Sunday tickets to The Reeling, and an Inverness Caley Thistle Home Game family of 4 ticket, plus many more!
