THERE was something for everyone during another "splendid" community week in Tillicoultry.

The programme proved one of the most eclectic to date with a workshop on circus skills, a scone making demonstration and and open gardens event.

In addition, there was a craft fayre, a family treasure hunt as well as come and try sessions at the bowling club.

Community week ran for eight days, kicking off on Sunday, August 14.

Archie Drummond, a member of the Community Week Committee, praised all those who came along and showed their support for the events.

He told the Advertiser: "It was another excellent community week in Tillicoultry, with 35 separate events over the eight days, not including the church services.

"The events were as varied as you could possible imagine. Different people showed up things, though seem people showed up at all the things.

"We got some really good positive feedback from the bowling club who said they got a very big response."

Perhaps one of the main highlights was the Tilly in the Park concert in the public park on Friday night, featuring performances from Blue Steel, Grand Slam, Brian Ovens and the Microwaves, Ashpan Jacks and Mondegreen.

However, the strength of the festival is undoubtedly the way it caters for all tastes.

Mr Drummond added: "The Bingo Tea at the Devonvale Hall was very well-received and the community quiz at the Woolpack Inn was jam-packed.

"We also had a sell-out Ceilidh set up by the Tillycoeur Twinning Association, with around 27 French people coming along too.

"As usual Clackmannanshire Council did arrange for a number of talks and presentations on a variety of topics, which went down well.

"Digital Scotland called up previously about doing a roadshow in the Tillicoultry so I said to them to come along during Community Week.

"They are currently rolling out high-speed broadband in the area and so they came and set up outside the Ben Cleuch centre while a workshop on demystifying social media was held.

"It was just another splendid week, with no negativity at all."
