Have your say in May!
Please click here to find out why we’re having a Community Gathering on 20 May and why your views count.
(Definitely not an April Fool, all hands needed!)
Following on from everyone’s efforts last month, we still have to ‘top dress’ the second half of the path we made, using the finer material. This will involve barrowing loads from the bottom end of the path where it will be deposited, then raking etc. It would be really good to get this job done in one go, so the more the merrier……
Meet at the top end of the path (junction with South Common) at 10am armed with barrows, shovels, rakes etc. There will be cake.
At the moment the weather doesn’t look too bad but if that changes we’ll rearrange.

Thornhill Community Hall was busy with stallholders and visitors on Saturday. There was lots of conversation, laughs and greeting of friends old and new.
Some of the stallholders decorated their stalls (and in some cases themselves) so the place looked bright and welcoming.
Many thanks to those who took part, donated home baking and sandwiches, and to the kitchen helpers who supplied endless cups of teas and coffees.
Thanks also to the Stirling Council ‘Let’s Get Together’ fund for grant in support of the event.
There is a selection of photos below. If anyone who was there and took their own photos would like them included you can email them to webadmin@thornhillstirling.org
