On the 1st of July "an talla" opened its doors for the first time, and community of Tiree gave a sigh of relief. We had been without a hall for 3 or 4 years. while we waited for the building of the new hall, the old one having been demolished to facilitate the whole process of obtaining the new one, especially any financial assistance.
We now have a beautiful,very up to date (state of the art)hall - the future looks bright! : ceilidhs, dances, concerts and meetings, you name it! An ailing community will be on the move again! The efforts of many are to be considered and appreciated.
And finally,and many are delighted, a wind turbine provides the electric power; granted not as formidible as those mentioned in the blogs, but completely effective - the second on the island.
But before closing, may I also mention the new mart;opened last year; so that between it and "an talla" our hopes have been raised considerably.
My thanks to Blog Blog for touching on this subject first.
