Not sure what to do with all the apples ripening in your garden. KBCT have a solution and invite you to come along with as much fruit as you can gather to have it crushed and squeezed into juice. Just bring your apples along to the Community Hall on Saturday 29^th October and we will do the rest. All we ask is that you also supply some clean flagons or containers. Empty milk cartons would be fine. You will then have delicious juice to enjoy at home or perhaps process further into cider. We will supply all the necessary equipment. There is no charge, although any small donation would be appreciated to help with costs. Spread the word, bring your friends and neighbours. The equipment will be in place outside the Hall from about 1 o’clock on Saturday .

We are also planning to hold our twice yearly litter pick around the village on the same day, so if you could perhaps spare an hour or so to help with the litter pick as well, that would be great. Sticks, gloves and bags will be provided. Just come along anytime after 1100.

Kirkhill and Bunchrew Community Trust has been working to investigate 
the possibility of setting up a community hub and shop in or near
Kirkhill. Some of you will have taken part in a detailed community
survey during the summer.

Members of the community of Kirkhill & Bunchrew, are
warmly invited to a public meeting on Wednesday, at Kirkhill Community
Centre, starting at 8pm. The purposes of the meeting are to update the
community on progress and receive your feedback.

Members of the Trust will present a summary of the survey results, a quick look at the
site options under consideration, and provide brief details on possible business
models and funding sources. What we hope to get from you is your
comments, suggestions and questions.

We look forward to seeing a big turnout on Wednesday evening!

Lovat Bridge to Dunballoch

Saturday 5th September 11.00 a.m.

Community residents are invited to the opening of this splendid new section of the Beauly to Kirkhill cycling and walking route. If you are interested in being present for the opening of this exciting new resource, please assemble from 10.45 on the grass triangle beyond the north side of the crossing point at Dunballoch ( A862 /B9164 junction ) in time for the 11.00 a.m. opening.

Following a short opening ceremony the group will cross the A862 and move along the new path to the point opposite the campsite entrance. Here we will recross the road and gather at the Scout tent on the site for refreshments , socialising and an opportunity to discuss future phases of the project. Of course you are welcome to travel directly to the campsite for 11.30 if this is more convenient for you.

It should be noted that there is little, if any, opportunity for safe car parking in the vicinity of Dunballoch junction. All are asked to come to this area by foot or cycle.

We would be very glad for contributions of home baking etc. from Trust members. Anyone who can offer this please contact Aileen Armstrong ( 831558 ) earlier in the week preceding the opening.

Please come along for an hour or two to help tidy leaves and litter from the paths around the Community Centre, Playpark and surrounding area. This is a joint venture involving KBCT and KDAA, and we would welcome volunteers young and old.

Children will be supervised.

Litter picking sticks and bags will be provided.

Please meet at the Community Centre car park Saturday 25^th April at 1000.
