Welcome to the Summer 2017 edition of the<br />

Grantown Times. We hope you find something of<br />

interest inside whilst hopefully sitting out on The<br />

Square catching some rays during the Summer<br />

months - we can hope!<br />

As a sub group under the umbrella of the<br />

Grantown Initiative one of the highlights of the last<br />

couple of months is the new community website<br />

that if you haven't seen it already you can view at<br />

w w w.grant ow nonline.com<br />

If you are a local business in the area please make<br />

sure you have signed up for your FREE listing, this<br />

goes for groups and sports clubs too, it's free and a<br />

great way to get your business and group out to<br />

the community and beyond. The Get Listed link is<br />

at the top right of the website on every page.<br />

We are also encouraging you all to put your events<br />

on there. You can see how to add your event by<br />

clicking EVENTS at the top of the site. This goes for<br />

weekly exercise classes, or art classes, anything<br />

really!<br />

We are relying on YOU the community to add your<br />

information to the website so please don't miss out<br />

and lets use this great new resource to all our<br />

advantage. Until Autumn.....<br />

This edition of the Grantown Times has been put<br />

together by Katie Fenton & Naomi Miles. Admin<br />

support from Diana Fenton.<br />
