SPA seeks Volunteer

Last month's Kemnay Newsletter did not appear in time for the Swimming Pool Association's February meeting. No doubt that was why the appeal for a volunteer to act as treasurer went unanswered! The Association is still looking for someone to look after its accounts and prepare its annual return to the Charities Regulator. These duties are not as onerous as they may sound, as the number of financial transactions annually is small. If any reader would like to volunteer, please contact Jim Piggins on 643859.

The committee of the Kemnay and District Swimming Pool Association met on Thursday 7th February. Discussion points included potential sources of funding, and the increasing demand for sports facilities, particularly given the recent planning approval for 102 new houses at Bogbeth Road. Mr David Fyffe gave an update on the progress of plans for recreational facilities at Fetternear. He hopes to have a questionnaire about demand for swimming issued through all local schools; if you receive one, please make every effort to complete and return it.

The next meeting will be in the Wainman Room of the Village Hall at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday 10th April. All residents of Kemnay are entitled to membership of the Association, and are welcome to come along and to contribute their ideas. Please make a note in your diaries and do come along on 10th April.
