The Strathbungo Society and its events are run entirely by volunteers and we always welcome new people who want to help in any way they can. It’s important that volunteers are able to move on, so we are always looking for people to take on roles, from the small to the not-so-small, but also to develop new initiatives. Our Committee Meetings are open to all and advertised under the events sections of the bungoblog and Strathbungo Facebook page, so if you have ideas or want to know more do come along.
Current volunteering opportunities include:

For those of you not lucky enough to get a shiny paper copy through your door, the latest Strathbungo Newsletter is available now, and you can read it here. It even features our new logo.
It is also filed in the Bygone Bungo newsletter archive with its predecesors.
If you like a little recent Bungo history, I have compiled an archive of over 20 years of The Strathbungo Society’s newsletters. Thanks to the sterling efforts of the newsletter editors – John Devitt, Laura Moodie (nee Jones), Dee Miller, and especially, Sharon Schweps – the Society has been keeping in touch with residents for all these years, and at the same time documenting the events, issues and changes in the community over that time.
A surprising number of issues haven’t changed that much (traffic, bins, etc).
There may still be the odd issue missing, but I’m working on it, and it is pretty complete already.
The archive has it’s own permanent page, and it’s on the Society history page Bygone Bungo, so go have a read…
The new Strathbungo Society Newsletter is off to the printer’s. Thanks to Alison, Allison, Bryan, Stephen and Teresa for reviewing it and catching several errors and omissions. This edition features articles by Angela Fulton, Lucy Gillie, Alison Hunter, Deidre Miller, Samantha Moir, Teresa Mooney and Kris Shelton. If you’d like to read the full-colour electronic version rather than the black and white print version, then click on the image on the left to open the pdf in a new tab.
Plans for a new urban skate park at the M74 flyover at Port Eglington have been unveiled for a currently empty site adjacent to the main route from Strathbungo (and points south) to Glasgow city centre. Drawing on inspiration from cities across the globe, including from Portland Oregon where skateboarders identified and built their own skate park, the projects promoters’ aim is to develop a new urban park for Glasgow to attract not only skateboarders, BMX bikers but wider local communities, including Strathbungo.

Plans for the £1m park have had funding support from Pollokshields Partnership (on which the Strathbungo Society sits), Transport Scotland, which owns the site, and Creative Scotland.
An exhibition of the plans will be at the Lighthouse from Saturday 19 July to 10 August 2014. For more information, see: http://www.thelighthouse.co.uk/visit/exhibition/gusm74
