Aprils figure of 1376 is a record for that month. The site continues to grow in popularity - it's good that it does. It's also challenging because looking for new content is quite demanding

The Blog is considered to be one of the more welcome assets on the site because it's published monthly. I enjoy doing it and the freedom the group give me in it's production is good. I can say pretty much what I think without any censorship. I do ask you to ignore the spelling and grammar errors that I do my best to avoid, but do creep in from time to time

Any budding actors out there?

I hear that a Pantomime is on the cards for the end of the year - now that's good news for the village. I'll try to find out more - watch this space

Annual General Meeting

These events are a necessary formality in any Groups calendar and are often considered boring - What I will say is I have attended many similar meetings in the past with various organsiations and I know they can get a bit tedious but, maybe I'm biased, this one will get to the point and will most of all will be an opportunity for those attending to get the true picture and a real feeling for what is happening with the Harbour Regeneration Project - so it certainly will not be boring

Please come along if you can

Thanks

Gala Day 2010 Sunday 25th July

This promises to be the best yet so please make a note in your diaries for the event on Sunday 25th July starting at 12.00 noon and ending at 5.00 pm

Only thing we can't control is the weather although we do guarantee a warm welcome.

You may have read in the official 'Blog' that the group did consider making this a two day event but after some debate decided against it. The content is there it's just a question of resources, with manpower being the most critical

It's early days yet but plans are underway to provide something that will appeal to all ages

Please come along if you can

Nice to see an increase once again . Best ever viewing figure for March since the site began (please note - these figures refer to the main Harbour Group website and not this 'Blog')

Content on the 'Blog' has been in short supply recently because I've been away

I hope to start adding more in the next few days, 'though I'm still playing cartch-up with a great many things. You know how it is.

Gala Day - Dog Agility Display

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

Portgordon Gala Day and Raft Race Sunday 25th July 2010

At last nights Gala day meeting the date for this years Gala day was fixed and will be Sunday 25th July. The event will begin at 12 noon and end at 5.00pm
Many ideas were discussed at the meeting and it's all looking good so far
Last years event had far more content than any previous year and really the only disappointment was the weather even then the disappointment was short lived because our supporters turned up in force to make it a day worth remembering
We are certainly hoping to make this one the best ever
Please keep looking at the main site for more information regarding the day and also this site will feature 'snippets' of information leading up to the big day
