Latest: Woodland Park to be improved
FIFE
woodlands - including Valleyfield Woodland Park - are to be improved
thanks to a grant of £170,000 being awarded from the Forestry
Commission Scotland’s Woodlands In and Around Towns (WIAT) Challenge
Funding.
Valleyfield Woodland Park is set to benefit from the funding, which will allow for woodland management plans to be implemented.
Crombie to showcase history
Celebrating
Fife 2010 is an opportunity for Crombie to showcase its history with
a public exhibition to be held over two days.
With the aide of photographs, video footage, newspaper clips and other
memorabilia there will be something of interest for everyone.
Busy
month at Culross Abbey
Culross
Abbey has a busy month coming up, with a full programme of events in
September - a floral extravaganza, choral concert and organ concert.
Summer Fete and Farmers Market
Although the day was grey, the wind was light and the rain stayed off until the last of the crowds had gone! Unusual weather for Culross and Torryburn Parish’s Fete, but it certainly brought the visitors in.
Culross
cycle route opened
Walkers and cyclists in Culross can now enjoy a new safe path from the village, with the official opening of the Kincardine to Culross cycle route.
Visitors turn out in force for festival
Some
1000 visitors attended Culross Musical & Arts Festival, with Eddi
Reader's concert (left) opening the weekend.
People arrived early for Carmen on Saturday and enjoyed their picnics
and soaked up the sun before, during and after the performance.
Crombie:
The Bygone Years
Crombie is to showcase its history with the goal of having a public exhibition on display on September 4th and 5th, in the community centre.
Crombie Social Committee are looking for enthusiastic volunteers of all ages willing to give up some of their time/skills to help make this happen.
Successful outcome to Saline consultation
A
community consultation has shown strong support for the Saline Environmental
Group’s proposals for improvements to the village.
The consultation was the final phase in the development of ideas for a community garden, conversion of a derelict outhouse at Saline School, an improved path to Steelend and a new path to Oakley. Villagers were able to see detailed plans funded from a grant from the Big Lottery’s “Investing in Ideas” initiative.
New booklet on villages
The
West Fife Villages Community Planning Group has commissioned Links Media
to prepare a revised West Fife Villages booklet.
The original edition was funded by a BIG Lottery grant and successfully raised awareness of the area’s many assets and communities. It was updated in 2005 but the group feels that it should be revamped to provide locals and visitors with more information about the area.
