Roundup from the Guild

Warm greetings from The Guild. There is not a lot to report since the Summer newsletter.

We held our A.G.M. in May and disbursed the funds that we had as follows:-

Mearns Kirk: £400
Erskine: £100
Chas: £100
Quarriers: £100
Highland Dancers: £100

As you see, we decided to concentrate this year on the young ones. The Highland Dancers, who so delighted us earlier in the year, were going off to compete in various competitions and we felt they needed a little help to raise  funds. Sadly, we had not raised as much money as usual ourselves, so our  donations reflected this.

We had our Annual Outing to Largs on 7th June, when we were blessed again with a glorious day of warmth and sunshine. Sadly, Evelyn was not well enough  to be with us, so we missed her on her birthday. We were very sad to say good- bye to Evelyn. She has been a Guild member for most of her married life and we  will miss her greatly. The entire Guild attended her funeral.

We send our love and condolences to Irene McKerral at the loss of her husband  Jim - a well-kent figure at the Guild.

Our new session begins on Wednesday, 6th September at 2p.m. with a general  get-together and catch up. At the moment, our syllabus is on-going but we will  be having another indoor (outdoor) Car Boot Sale in the Spring. Speakers for  our meetings are not yet finalised. Our meeting on 20th September will be our  annual Bring and Buy.

I hope Summer is being kind to everyone and look forward to seeing old and  new members in September.
