GGCUA & British Waterways Summer Quiz and BBQ Saturday 30 July 2011

A fun evening is being planned for Saturday 30 July at Dochgarroch Hall, just by Dochgarroch Lock, which we hope you will be able to join us for.

Starting at 6.30pm the GGCUA BBQs will be hot and available, ready for BBQ time. Please bring your own food to cook on them and your drinks for the evening.

From approx 7.30pm there will be a Quiz night inside the hall. Price for entering the quiz will be £2 per head (under 14s free), don’t worry if you haven’t enough people for a team as you can make up one on the night with other Association members or British Waterways staff.

The quiz will consist of approx 10 rounds covering a variety of subjects, something for everyone.

We look forward to seeing you on the night

Here are a few pictures I have uploaded of the events held on Monday evening to welcome the Danish Ocean Cruising Association.

It's the first time I've tried an album link so fingers crossed this works. Let me know if there are any issues.

LATEST NEWS FROM GGCUA

The Danish Ocean Cruising Association

"Halo, Failte gu Alba"


Hello, and a BIG WELCOME TO SCOTLAND was given to the Danish Ocean Cruising Association on who arrived over this weekend at the Seaport Marina, Inverness.

The main event which began on Monday with a civic reception at Inverness Town House was followed by an evenings entertainment back at the Seaport. Wonderful live music from members of the Ceilidh Trail, a whisky tasting (many tastings) and cooperage display from the Glenfiddich Distillery, a marvellous performance by the newly formed Danish Ocean Cruising Association Choir and a very fine barbeque organised by GGCUA.

WHAT A NIGHT! If you were there, you'll know exactly what I mean. If you were not, you missed a treat!

A MASSIVE THANK YOU to GGCUA volunteers who gave their time, enthusiasm and energy to the barbeque preparation and delivery. Without YOU, it would not have been the great success it was! 150 people fed and 150 people very satisfied! Hope you've recovered!!

We will post a selection of photographs from the event shortly. If you have any to add, please do so, we'd love to see them.

Many, many thanks.

David Bird

Chair of GGCUA.
