The GVHT AGM will be held in the hall on Thursday 16th November at 7:30pm. All residents are encouraged to attend for an update on this important part of our community. As the AGM is not expected to last too long we have taken the opportunity of following it with a presentation from Haddington Camera Club which I’m sure will be interesting and informative. Wine and cheese will also be on offer, making this a community occasion not to be missed. Hopefully this will attract a good turn out. Do please come along.
A very big thank you to all who took part in organising and attending the Village Hall Table Sale and Coffee Afternoon on Sunday afternoon. It was great to see the hall so busy with many people turning up to browse the great variety of items for sale and sample the tasty bakes.
The event was a big success and raised just under £380 for the hall! We’re sure there will be more of these events to come in the future.
The next committee meeting of the Garvald Village Hall Trust will be held in the hall on Wednesday 24th August at 7:30pm.This is an open meeting and anyone interested is welcome to attend.

Village Hall Fundraising
Unfortunately, we have had to postpone our planned fundraising quiz in the park on 13th September as we felt that it wouldn’t be appropriate to organise a community event given the continuing concerns around Covid-19.
However, we are considering other fundraising ideas which we hope to share shortly. Do please look out for opportunities to support our efforts.
Stay safe
