Thank you to all who came along today and bought and/or contributed to the plant sale. So far £116 has been raised for the Village Hall. There are still some plants available to purchase which have been left outside the hall. If you would like to buy any of these, please just pop your money through the letterbox at Whitelaws.
Thanks also to those who donated and/or purchased cakes and treats and teas/coffees. A total of £76 was raised for the Village Hall and it was lovely to see everyone enjoying their refreshments in the sunshine. A successful day!
A reminder that the Plant Sale will be this coming Saturday, 18th May at 2-3.30pm, outside the village hall. Please drop off any donations on the day after 1pm, or in advance to Malcolm at Whitelaws. Last year the sale was well supported and made £230 for the hall!
Isla Evatt and team will be in the hall at the same time selling teas, coffees and cakes to raise funds for the hall. Any donations of baking would be appreciated and can also be dropped off at the hall on the day after 1pm or in advance to Isla at Burnbrae.
