KIRKMAHOE THEN & NOW APRIL 2013

This photo album customized with Smilebox The exhibition at the weekend proved to be a great success, with large numbers of visitors interested to learn about the history of our area.   There were many displays ranging from farming, mining, the 2 world wars to school, church and map displays. With many more not mentioned here. Morag's painstaking planning certainly proved to be well worthwhile with many of the visitors appearing on both days, so much was there  to take in. It was also an opportunity for our scattered community to meet up with old friends not seen over the winter months, and also  to meet some new residents to the area. The teas and coffees along with home baking were most welcome as it is thirsty work looking at, and discussing the various displays! Morag thanked all the contributors as well as giving out various prizes for the best display, and the photographic competition. I am sure everyone will join Kirkmahoe News in thanking Morag for all her hard work and for all those who contributed displays, and assisted in other ways, to make this wonderful Exhibition such a success.
