Dalry Public Park has great potential to be developed into an area that can help provide various facilities and eventsthat were enjoyed by previous generations, which we have seen eroded over the years. The Sports Pavilion provides an excellent base for which a lot of these can be facilitated from, where the instalation of these lights, extending this even further. Recent years have seen Dalry Community Sports Club, and in partnership with others, facilitate a number of events and activities here, including, Parklives, Party in the Park, Skirt the Skeith, Menshed, Sheshed, Dr Bike, School Sports Day, Puppy Training, Craft Event, Kids Football, Orienteering, King's Coronation, Queen's Jubilee. We recently seen the installation of 10 solar lights in the park, which lights the footpath from the carpark to the pavilion, which DCSC secured funding for, where we would now see this being complemented by the old floodlights being brought back into use, which overall gives us a facility that can be better accessed over the winter period / dark nights, with opportunities to use both the inside and outside areas of the pavilion for activities and events. We have seen the benefits that this has offered the community of Dalry and the surrounding areas to date, and are kean to continue to build on this.

Permissions : as part of our solar lighting of the park project, Gary Wilson ( Manager ( Lighting & Municipalisation ) / Roads - Engineering Services), gave Dalry Community S[ports Club consent to use our own contractors to bring the floodlights back into operation as appropriate.
