Sword fencing, gardening and much more at New Elgin Showcase

SWORD fencing, gardening, fitness classes and parents groups – just some of the many activities and groups which will be showcased in New Elgin on Saturday (June 17).

The event will take place from 10am to 12pm in the New Elgin and Ashgrove Public Hall.

People will have the chance to try out activities on their doorstep.

This is part of the New Elgin East and West Community Plan and residents will be treated to a taster from local social groups, fitness classes, parents groups, and gardening enthusiasts with interactive stalls and a fire engine to see up close.

There will be interest for all ages from the Guides and Scouts to Police Volunteers and displays from the Army cadets.

There’s also the opportunity to meet two new groups recently started up and funded by the New Elgin Community Plan - Mums Days and It Takes a Village.

Refreshments will be on offer alongside a raffle and the chance to shape new youth resources for New Elgin and discover the secret garden.

The event is open to all to attend.
