Minister runs 10k - August 2008
Our minister ran the Blythswood 10k today to raise funds for an orphange in India. Not being the regular athlete it was a bit of a feat for him, but by all accounts he has survived

Summer Coffee Morning - June 2008Sun
Thank you to those who came along and supported our main fundraising event of the summer on Saturday 14th June. There were the usual stalls on display including: home-baking, books, tombola, bric-a-brac, jewellery and raffle. The social committee ran a Tea Room where folks sat to enjoy a cup of fairly-traded tea or coffee. Thanks to your support, we raised a superb £804, so well done everybody!

Changing Rooms - May 2008Tina painting the ceiling
When ideas were being thought of for the 75th Anniversary, it was discussed, the idea of giving time to the community.
Over the years that I have been at Bankhead we have formed a very good relationship, and I knew that they had plans to make over an old changing room area to turn it into a space to be used by small groups and a resource library.
So, I suggested this idea to the youngsters of re:Fre5h and they were keen to take it on. So in early May work began in the room. It was probably more work than initially expected. The room had to be cleaned, and then the tiles primed and painted. The roof had to be painted, and the floor sorted and finally a carpet laid. Pictures of the work can be seen in the Gallery.
They worked over seven days and gave 100 hours of their time to make it happen.
The youngsters involved were Craig Coia, Lewis Faryma, Mark Chatham, Sarah Grant, Rhona Proctor, Tina Pullan, Vanessa Pullan and Caitlin O'Hara.
It was a good experience and was a fine example of how to be a good neighbour in the community.

West Highland Way - April 2008West Highland Way logo
First of all we would like to thank everyone who sponsored us. To date we have banked just over £4,000 with possibly more still expected.
There were nine of us who set off to do the full walk, Alan, myself, Robyn and Jessica Gibbon, Hugh McLean, Robert Geddes, Faye Bruce, Susan Rodden and Tamara Cairney and thankfully nine of us who finished. We also had seven join us for the first day. Ann Rodden, who walked to Milngavie, Tricia Beck, Craig McLean, Rona Proctor, Amanda Pullen and Vicky and Jeanette Glen who all walked to Drymen. Amanda also joined us on the final day into Fort William too.
The main question Alan and I seem to have been asked was "did you enjoy it". Each time we have had to answer "Enjoy" is not the right word. For me it was a whole journey of mixed emotions.

KCC: 75 Years Young!
Knightswood Congregational Church in Dunterlie Avenue Knightswood entered its 75th Anniversary year by releasing 75 ballons on Sunday 6th January. The Congregation gathered at the front door of the church to see the balloons go off. It was a good way to start the year. We hope to make an impact on the community by trying to raise £7,500 over the year for charitable causes in Knightswood. There are a series of special events for the year culminating in a special service on Sat 11th October, the actual anniversary. Watch this space for more special events to mark our Anniversary.
