We
have had help from many people not least the committee members (past and
present) and their families who have been very supportive.
Thanks go to all who have worked on the project over the last few years.
This includes the paid help, the volunteers, our advisers in the public and
private sectors and particularly the children and young people who have been
involved from the initial planning of the park and continue to be involved
in the development and maintenance.
Many people have gifted services or charged a special rate in view of the
nature of this project, allowing our funding to stretch further. Thank you.
The
whole community (young and old) have been supportive from the beginning,
especially Eoropie Common Grazings who gave us the land and Fios, the local
newspaper, that continues to champion our cause.
The
GAIN committee would like to extend thanks to all.
Projects like this could never be successful without this kind of support.
