What's New?
 | AMP
The group recently completed a couple of concerts over
the Christmas period and they are continuing to work
towards Youth Achievement Awards. They hope to
have a number of concerts over the summer and have been
invited to perform at the 'Loft' in Keith and at an
event for young people in Elgin. |
 | Quines Club
The Quines Club recently held a well organised Burns
Night - however, not many people enjoyed the haggis or
the neeps! |
 | Buckie Skate Park
The Skate Park Group has just completed two successful
fundraising events including a bag pack at the Co-op,
and a sponsored skate to Dundee Skatepark, which raised
around £1,500. The tenders to build the Skate
Park have just been returned and the group hope to get
the construction underway shortly and completed by late
June this year. The group hope to have a cutting
event to thank all their funders and plan to launch the
Skate Park with a grand opening at midsummer on 21st
June. This will coincide with a week of training
and demonstrations for young people. |
