AYR GROUP MASS – THURSDAY 5 FEBRUARY 

Our Chaplain Fr Philip Kitchen will be saying Mass for all the Ayr Groups on Thursday 5 February in St Margaret’s Church Hall at 7 pm. 

I am also extending an invitation to the following people: 

Members of our other Diocesan Groups in Kilmarnock and St John’s in Stevenson. 

Family and friends of the members of our Ayr Groups. 

Anyone who sees themselves as a friend of SPRED, including past members of groups. 

Everyone will be warmly welcomed! 

THE KILLIE ZIP – 14 MARCH 2026 

After some deliberation and discussion, it has been decided that Scott O’Hare will now be doing the Killie Zip rather than the Highland Swing. The Killie Zip is a new and exciting adventure of zipping from tree to tree through the stunning valley of Killiecrankie and across the mighty River Garry at heights of up to 30m.  Scott will now be like George of the Jungle in that he will have to ‘watch out for that Tree’. (Please look at You Tube to find out all about George of the Jungle and his theme tune.) An appropriate announcement will also be made through our Facebook Page.   

We will still be looking for Sponsorship for Scott and since the event will take place at roughly the same venue, date and time our planning for the day itself will remain the same. 

CORPORATE FUNDING  

I am looking to see if we can encourage a business to sponsor some of the running costs of this event or an individual with very big pockets.  If you know of anyone who runs a local business who we could approach, then please let us know.  The Zipline experience itself costs £49 and there may be other costs involved. 

CONCLUSION 

If you want any more information or to pass on any thoughts or suggestions in terms of any aspect of this event, then please do not hesitate to contact me.  

CONCLUSION 

There are many thoughts running through my head in terms of this event, but I will stop there for now.  If you want any more information or to pass on any thoughts or suggestions in terms of any aspect of this event, then please do not hesitate to contact me.
