Last months visitor numbers were a record since the site began and now the records been broken again by an amazing 43% increase on June

The increase is obviously due to the build up to and including Gala Day

It's great news for all concerned and I'm very grateful for the many contributions I receive from the Harbour Group Committee and others for providing timely and relevant information that I can add to the site

Thanks to all of you for looking at the main site - every visit helps

Charity Raft Race at Portgordon on Gala Day

Charity Raft Race on Gala Day 25th July 2010

Win £100 for your favourite Charity

This year, for the first time, the Harbour Group has decided to make the annual Raft Race beneficial to others perhaps less fortunate than those taking part. The organisers will donate £100 to a registered charity nominated by the Raft Race winning team. Also, with charities in mind, the Group is encouraging all entrants to obtain sponsorship for their chosen charity. So what are you waiting for, come along and have a great day and help others in the process. It is not a requirement that you obtain sponsorship for any charity - feel free to do as you wish.

Can you build a raft? Can you provide a crew?

The rules and entry form are on the main website - here are links

Remember the Dog Agility Display from last years Gala Day

I'm going to ask the Dog Training group to come along again this year. The dogs proved to be one of the most popular attractions. It was a first and one that the committee certainly want to repeat. I'll be getting in touch with the Group and will let you know how I go on.

In the meantime if there are any ideas that you may have to add something to the day then please lets me know via the comments link - nothing will be published without your permission

Charitable Status.

The Group is now a registered charity
This really is good news. The Group has worked long and hard to achieve Charitable Status - this paves the way for the future and was always a key element in the Groups progress. More information will be published in due course. Please keep looking at the website for updates
