Dates for your diary :

Kilmarnock (A) Saturday   5th  April   15.00 kick- off  (beano trip)

 

We have been invited to East Kilbride British Legion club for the Glasgow Hearts SC Race Day.    The race day kicks off at 11am and finishes to allow the buses to leave at 2pm for the match.  This trip is obviously dependent on numbers.  To gauge interest please email me ASAP.     It will be an early start and I realise this is a couple of months away but would appreciate a response.  ianshiells@blueyonder.co.uk

HEARTS LEARNING CENTRE

Linlithgow & District Hearts Supporters Club donated £500 earlier in the season and this is the result. Our name will now forever be associated with this venture. Well done everybody. Grant Thorburn will represent the club at the launch on 15th February. Here's a letter received from Hearts confirming the details.

______________

"I write firstly to thank you for the Linlithgow & District Hearts Supporters Club's financial contribution to the new Hearts Learning Centre. It is through pledges such as these that we are able to develop, sustain and expand our activities within the Heart of Midlothian Education and Community Trust and for this assistance we are extremely grateful.

 Further to our recent telephone conversations I would like to officially confirm the Linlithgow & District Hearts Supporters Club as a founding partner in the Hearts Learning Centre. Recognition of the Linlithgow & District Hearts Supporters Club will be made on future publications for the centre and on the Hearts website.

Should you wish to discuss any aspect of the Hearts Learning Centre please do not hesitate to contact me.

The launch of the Hearts Learning Centre will be on Friday 15th February at Tynecastle and an official invitation will be posted out to you shortly.

 Once again many thanks for your support and I hope you are able to attend the launch"

 

Yours in sport

Heart of Midlothian Community & Education Trust.

The Supporters club is donating £500 from club funds to the Heart of Midlothian Community & Education Trust.  Incidentally, since the move was agreed at the AGM Hearts have agreed that the cheque should be handed over at a half time and the Gazette has agreed to cover the story.

2007 AGM 

was held in the Black Bitch Tavern on Saturday 28th July 2007 before the Barcelona game. 22 people attended. 

At the recent AGM it was agreed that membership fees and bus fares should remain the same as last year.
