Brighter Bungo – This Sunday 10th Jan, 11am

Alan Dobson is organising the latest Strathbungo Volunteer Clean Up this Sunday. Your support would be greatly appreciated, as always. Please meet at the corner of Nithsdale Road and Moray Place (Sammy Dows) at 11.00am. Equipment and training will be provided, as will tea, coffee & shortbread, with any luck!

To add to the fun, a small gang (Andrew & Stephen) intend to have a go at clearing some of the overgrowth through the Moray Place fence. Anyone willing to help out with this would be most welcome. If you have tools (loppers, rakes, shovels, wheelbarrows) or are a dab hand with a petrol hedge trimmer, even better.

Strathbungo Society Xmas Drinks

bells

The forthcoming Strathbungo Society monthly meeting on 15 December 2015 will be an informal, social meeting and will take place at 7.30pm in the ‘Den’ at The Bungo, Nithsdale Road. All are welcome for a wee pre-Christmas prandial.

The agenda items are (i) prep for Bungo at the Bells, and (ii) ideas for news items in the forthcoming Strathbungo News to be published in the early New Year and we can hopefully deal with them quickly to allow folks to meet and talk.

The next formal Committee meeting will be held on Tuesday 19 January 2016; this will take place in the basement of the Bungo as will most of the subsequent meetings in 2016 and will review the main actions from our November meeting.

Weans in the Lanes – this Sunday AM

Weans in the Lanes is back for its pre-Christmas outing this Sunday 6th December from 10am-12pm. Three lanes are taking part this month, look out for bunting and signs to let you know which ones.

A break in the never-ending rain is forecast for Sunday, so come out and enjoy some winter air with friends and neighbours.

 

Weans in the Lanes

Weans in the Lanes is back for its second outing tomorrow morning (Sunday 1st Nov) from 10am-12noon.

Once again, the lanes will be closed to through traffic in order to allow kids to play freely. All are welcome, come and see the lanes full of life!

Thanks to everyone who helped out with the first Weans in the Lanes yesterday morning. It was a real success, with a bouncy castle, scooters, archery and lots of games of hopscotch all making an appearance in the lanes. The next one will be on Sunday 1st November from 10am-12pm and then the first Sunday of every month after that.

Weans in the Lanes!

A group of Strathbungo residents would like to open up the back lanes once a month for a couple of hours as a space for local children to play outside.

Here, they can get to know neighbours and spend time with friends in a place that is known to all.

There are various factors to consider in setting up Weans in the Lanes, such as safety, volunteers, parking and the level of interest in such a venture.

To hear more about the idea and to register interest and/or discuss concerns please come along to a meeting downstairs at The Bungo on Wednesday 26th August at 7.30pm.
