22nd Anniversary

Yes, it is the 22nd anniversary of the Recreation and Hobbies Exhibition on 5th and 6th October at Glen Pavilion, Pittencrieff Park, Dunfermline. The list of participants reads like a Who’s Who of local leisure organisations.

The free exhibition, which is being mounted by Fife Council Community Services, in association with Dunfermline and West Fife Sports Council will be open to the public from 11.00am – 4.00pm each day.

Councillor David Arnott (Photo on the right), Acting Chair, Area Services Committee, said “Given the range of displays on offer we’re sure the event will again prove a winner”.

From Birds to Boats, Cameras to Curling, Dancing to Drama, Fencing to Floral Art, Model Making to Music, Rabbits to Radio – whatever your interest you can find it in the Glen when nearly 50 exhibitors display their activities at this shop window of leisure time pursuits.

5 000 Visitors

The Exhibition, celebrating its twenty-second year and probably Scotland’s biggest, regularly attracts 5,000 visitors.

Organisations new to the Exhibition this year include the Dunfermline Fuchsia Society and Fife Apple Mac Users Society, while the National Sugarcraft Association make a welcome return.

Outdoor attractions feature prominently this year with displays in the paddling pool by Rosyth Model Ship Club and flying displays by the Model Aero Club.

The West Fife Guides will feature the ever-popular face painting for kids at their stand.
