The new shopShop Opening Event, 26 April 2008

Very pleased to report on a successful opening of the new shop, lots of local folk there to greet the Staff and Management.

Plenty of free sweeties and balloons and what appeared to be brisk trade.

An excellent start to our new shop which looks very smart and well stocked, welcome to all those working there and we hope it proves to be a great success.

Here are a few pictures from the opening

Balloch Village Trust meeting - Tuesday 13th May

Balloch Village Trust meeting, open to all. 7.30 in the Village Hall

This will feature a presentation about the shop by Scotmid representatives, come and welcome them and ask them anything you like.

There will also be the BVT Annual General Meeting, a chance to join BVT, some displays of local history…..and best of all tea, biscuits and cake kindly provided by Scotmid!

We thank you all for your help and support during the year and look forward to seeing you at the meeting.

Some questions

Why not raise the question of the Post Office at the May meeting?

 It looks like the Forestry Commission? are building a great path up the top end of Culloden Road , will it link up with the rest of the footpath or will pedestrians, cars and horses still have to compete on the narrowest and most dangerous section?    

 

And finally  ….BVT have been doing a lot of work to prepare and map paths in the woods, the map will soon be available for sale.

A great deal of background work has been undertaken on our local archaeology and some will be on show at the May meeting.

Congratulations to NTS on the opening of the new Culloden Battlefield Centre, it is a tremendous resource, do go along and have a look.
