THREE EASTER THINGS FOR A THURSDAY

With Easter around the corner and people off on well earned breaks over the next four days (and beyond) this week its Three Things For A Thursday!

GET TO NAME OUR ROOMS

You have us all your suggestions and now you get to choose you two favourites.  Name the Wildside Centre Rooms and see the winners on our new booking system when it goes LIVE – details of how to vote here. It's over to YOU! 

LITTER PICK VOLUNTEERS WANTED

It’s a lot of old rubbish!  No, not this column but the litter outside.  Get involved with the community litter pick on 14th April.  Details here.  And check out social media about the Easter Fun Day at the Hub this weekend.

ERROGIE STAINED GLASS WINDOW

It was great to see this little story of school children using Errogie to help design the new stained glass window which will go into the new centre when it is developed.  If you read the article the building is one thing but it is the inspiration for local groups and further afield to look deeper into our local area and learn more about what is around them and take part in activities using our natural surroundings.  In this case the children went do to Loch Mhor.  What a fabulous opportunity.  More here 

I hope you and your families have a Happy Easter
