I would like to try and set a challenge for everyone in the new year.
I thought it would be a good idea to see if we could complete a full year of historical events that took place
in the three towns, whether it be a birth - marriage - death of someone well known who made a major
impact on the world or the opening of a new building in the 3Ts or the closure of a local business etc etc.
The event can come from any category whatsoever, all that I ask is that it is strictly related to any
of the three towns of Ardrossan, Saltcoats or Stevenston.
I contemplated attempting this on my own, to start in January 2015, but found it far too hard and after
taking some advice have decided it wiser to try & get as many people involved as possible by setting this
challenge. That way we have a far greater chance of achieving it, I think ?
It would be excellent if we could get a minimum of one post per day for each of the three towns, but even
that may be asking far too much ? So if we could get one post per day connected to any of the 3Ts then I
think we could call it a success ?
I am posting this just now to give all those who may be interested some advance notice that I already
have something in mind for Ardrossan, to get us started on the 1st, and to give yous a chance to gather
ideas for the 1st (and any other dates).
Remember:
The event can come from any category.
It must be strictly related to any of the 3Ts.
It has to be posted on the appropriate corresponding day.

Re: On This Day In 3Ts History
Richard,
The topic has the potential to introduce items which might not otherwise be posted.
I think it will be very interesting
I've already drafted something for the 1st of January.

Nothing is ever really lost to us as long as we remember it.

Re: On This Day In 3Ts History
We were heading for conflicting posts with there virtually being three topics in one. I've added a sub-forum under the Threetowners' Lounge and split the posts to each town's new topic. You can do all the usual stuff there other than start new topics.
