Transport in Gulberwick: Bad Weather Issues

The Gulberwick community has suffered from changes to planned transport due to bad weather in the local area.  The most common problem is snow, frost and ice causing Stunkin Brae to be impassable.  This can occur with little or no warning in the winter months and often while the A970 main road remains in use.  Gritting is not always sufficient to keep the road open.  It is a particular problem for pupils who daily travel on the school bus services. 

Environmental Award For Peter

   

On 24th November, Peter Kenny local resident of Gulberwick, received a Shetland Environmental Award for his hard work in keeping Gulberwick beach clean. The judging panel were impressed with Peter's commitment and effort throughout the year.
He received his award at a ceremony held in the museum in Lerwick. His family and friends were invited along too and all enjoyed the delicious buffet provided. Well done, Peter! 

 

Bonfire Night on Gulberwick Beach 2010

 

 

Bonfire night in Gulberwick was again a great night for all. A torchlight parade from the hall by several of the older children carrying torches to start the fire, marched to the bonfire site on the beach. The good sized bonfire (thanks to Liam Mullay) finaly got going in the strong wind. The fireworks were as impressive as ever and the children all enjoyed the event.
