Many many thanks to the shoppers of the Co-op, because:-
KCDC are delighted to announce that the Co-op Community fund in support of the Kingussie Paths Project has amassed a fantastic total of £5,103.
The project supported the ongoing maintenance of the paths in the community by volunteers. Director Len Cruickshank has seen a huge increase in the number of walkers out enjoying the path network “we have received a great deal of positive and supportive comments on the works by passing walkers”.
KCDC Director Kenny Deans said “the Community Fund is a truly magnificent way of local people enabling local causes to make a difference in the community. The total amount raised will ensure our hardy volunteers are provided with the materials and tools to make a difference. We are really appreciative of the Co-op shoppers who have chosen us as the good cause and we would thank them most sincerely”.
Path maps are always part of our newsletter drop round the town and additional copies are available at Caberfeidh Horizons.
There are plans going forward to undertake works to the east of Loch Gynack and to the immediate section along the path to the south of the loch and the other in Tom Baraidh woods and the approach to Raitts. KCDC hopes to arrange volunteer days to tackle these sections, and if anyone wishes to join the work parties, please get in touch via lgcruickshank@btinternet.com or Sandy Maxwell on 07766 380 663.
Look forward to seeing you there.
