Running the board

[Malky]

I know you must have some costs running this board Davie. Have you thought of sponsorship or grants or something to help?

There must be some help available out there for a Community board like this. It is after all trying to promote Kintyre to the wider world. After that Paddy Wivell 'thing' I reckon Kintyre - and Campbeltown in particular - needs all the help it can get

A few comments on this thread would be welcome. C'mon folks, don't just look - POST

East Kintyre Windfarm Trust are inviting applications for funding at the moment. You need to get in quick though as the closing date is 13 May and they'll be discussing the applications after the next EKCC meeting.

There was an advert on page 23 of the 22 April Campbeltown Courier with all the details.

It says that only projects in the EKWFT area (Grogport to Pininver) are eligible but I'm sure they gave a grant last year to a project who weren't in the actual area but who provided a service to it.

...alternatively, there are some other web sites (e.g. weblogs) which ask for donations using paypal...

Will just leave things as they are now but thanks for the messages.

See the www.visitkintyre.info (or www.campbeltown.info) had its 10,000 visit today which isn't bad after a few months.

Certainly think the message board helps but I need to stop viewing it and develop the web site more. Some pans are behind schedule!

Seems to have went a bit quieter on the board this week - nobody got any news

Nothing earth-shattering, just that my little boy was on Balamory today (Tuesday). For anyone with little kids who happened to see today's programme he was the little blonde boy who helped pick the vegetables and play with the rabbit.

Cheers
