Open Day at Dunoon Burgh Hall Project

The Dunoon Burgh Hall Project is holding an Open Day at the hall on 2nd May. This will let people in to have a look at what’s happened so far and to see the plans for what will be done by the time the project is complete.

The organisers are planning a day-long day series of events and entertainment, running into the evening. They are asking for all local community groups and associations to contribute elements of the event. This would make the day an area-wide community celebration of a much loved building being brought back into community service for today’s needs.

The project hopes to be in a position shortly to open an administration office for the project on the groud floor of the hall.

Argyll’s MS, Jim Mather, is in Dunoon on 13th March and will be meeting John McAslan whose family own the hall. Mr McAslan is expected to discuss with Mr Mather the role of the community in the project.

Contact the Burgh Hall Project Group on 01369 703803 for information on contributing either to the project or to the Open Day on 2nd May.
