National Park Authority’s Report on Consultation

Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park Authority  has produced its Report on Consultation, which is their report on the results of the initial consultation on the draft local plan in February 2009. This apparently fed in to their Finalised Draft Local Plan, the consultation period of which ended on 6 April 2010. Copies of their Report on Consultation are available  on the National Park website (pdf 3.3mb).

Easter Beach Clean

It was with no small amount of dedication, 10 volunteers, accompanied by two National Park Rangers, gave up their Easter Sunday morning to clean Ardentinny beach. 15 sacks were filled with unsightly and damaging litter and all was recorded for the  ‘Adopt a Beach’ statistics.

A big thank you to all those who gave up some time and took part in the Beach Clean on Sunday. The participants were, Jimmy Gordon, Brian Tweddle, Sandra Tweddle, David Hall, Cathy Riordan, Claire Stone, Eric Stone, Dennis Gower, Roger from Strone. Also thanks to Jo Wilkinson and Margaret Robinson for having the tea and goodies ready at the village hall and David for immortalising the proceedings on Ardentinny.org.

Also to Jim Downie from National Park who provided the picks, gloves etc. and disposed of the 15 bags of rubbish we collected. This may sound a lot but each time we have a beach clean there is less and less to collect so all the hard work by all the volunteers is paying dividends in making the beach a better place as well as helping to protect the marine life visit https://www.buymyhouse7.com/.

Thanks again from Eileen and Pauline

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A New Season

Ardentinny Bowling Green on Loch Long

It  has been a bad winter for the green with a heavy frost and snow putting it in the deep freeze for a month, thereby restricting growth and work on the green.

However the weather has finally relented a bit, so in preparation for the coming season the green has been solid tined and verti drained, then a  top dressing of 10 tons of sand, spring and summer fertiliser, lawn sand and grass seed applied.

During the winter our luxury, “AYE RIGHT ” caravan / changing room finally succumbed to the vagaries of the Ardentinny climate and it was decided that a replacement should be sought. Don Cragg our clubhouse convener, sourced a suitable replacement at Beaver Timber Buildings at Barcaldine. It is now in place and ready for the new season. The old caravan has also been demolished and removed.
