The President and members of The Rotary Club of
Cumbernauld rolled their sleeves up and completed the first of three phases
of work to improve the environment around St. Maurice’s Pond in Cumbernauld.
Saturday’s efforts saw the pruning of trees to
improve safety, the clearing of overgrown path verges and the removal of
bottles, bags, traffic cones and even a wheel barrow from the Pond itself.
Club President Alex Mearns said “this is a great
opportunity for Rotary to work in partnership with colleagues in North
Lanarkshire Council and to be involved in activities which will benefit the
whole community. We are looking forward to the next phase of this worthwhile
initiative and I hope that next time someone remembers to bring the
coffee!!!!”
