  • A final shout out …

    Does anyone else want tickets for the 70s Night on Saturday? If you haven’t let Caroline or Katy know already, could you do so as soon as possible? Call, e-mail or knock on either of their doors … It’s just because they’re trying to finalise numbers for catering etc. Heaven forbid there’s not enough cheesy pineapple sticks!

  • “You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life … “

  • Community Christmas Dinner: 4th December 2014

    For over forty years,  Garvald residents and those from outlying settlements have been gathering to enjoy a Christmas meal together. Hitherto, said dinner has been held at Nunraw by the kind permission of the Community of Sancta Maria Abbey. Following the sale of the guest House earlier this year, it has been decided that the village should now return the favour and host the event in the Village Hall. As such, please diary the evening of Thursday 4th December. Formal invitations will follow over the next couple of weeks, so keep an eye out. And if you’d like to get involved with the organising, please drop us a line.

  • Hogmanay Head’s Up

    The Hall’s management committee will not be organising a Hogmanay event this year, and will be focussing on making the forthcoming 70s Night a success instead.

    As such, the Hall will be available for a private Hogmanay party. Or if a group of villagers want to get together to stage a community event, they will be most welcome. Drop the bookings secretary a line here.

  • GVHT AGM

    Many thanks to the few of you who came along to last night’s meeting, especially given the big “schedule clash.” My baking versus the Bake Off final, there was only ever going to be one winner …

    Should you want a copy of the accounts, Hazel Clark still has some print outs so please knock on her door at 6 Burnside Court.

    And if you wish to join the management committee, do drop us a line. We are short on numbers, and it is impacting on our ability to put on all the “usual” village events. .
