Quiz Night - Friday 8th May 2026

Pitreavie Golf Club kindly hosted our Quiz on 8 May. There was a mixture of regular quiz teams from the golf club as well as groups of friends and even Community Council members.

Andy Martin (AM Discos)  a respected quizmaster from Dunfermline set us 5 rounds of mixed questions, some easy, to lull us into a false sense of security, many more were a bit tricky.  The picture round of faces and logos proved to be a talking point, the winners The Clueless Covenanters received a bottle of wine and a box of chocolates.

Rolling £1 coins at the Brandy Bottle was very competitive, eventually won by Ali Moore, £53 was raised.

It was a close run race, runners up Blackwood Bairns were beaten by just 1 point by Jumpers for Goalposts, we hope they spend the £100 wisely.

Feedback indicated it was a good evening and one we hope to repeat.

As always thanks to every one who helped to organise, Pitreavie Golf Club for the use of the room and last but not least to everyone who came along to support us.

We do not run these events to make a profit, we hope to provide an opportunity for the Community to get together.


Over 65’s Evening - Sunday 12th April 2026

Sunday evening 12 April saw us gathered in the Pitbauchlie House Hotel to enjoy our annual entertainment event for residents aged over 65. This has become a very popular event over the years. Guests enjoyed a beautiful 2 course meal for £15 this is subsidised by South Dunfermline Community Council and a discount from the Hotel. After the meal entertainment was ably provided by local resident Charlie Toner. The tunes were lively and the dancers kept the floor busy.

We really appreciate the support from residents and from the staff in the Hotel, it brings people together and hopefully helps to encourage folk to be part of the community.

Litter Pick - Saturday 11th April 2026

As part of Beautiful Scotland we organised a litter pick on Queensferry Road. In 2½ hours our volunteers had collected 25 bags of assorted litter. As well as all the usual rubbish, the volunteers found a pair of boxer shorts, a boxing glove and a small fire extinguisher!

Many thanks to all the volunteers, the road looks much cleaner, we hope it stays that way.
