2. Approval of the Minutes
It was agreed that the minutes were an accurate record. Proposed by Vicki Thomas and seconded by Phil Owen.
Matters Arising
No matters were raised, which were not on the agenda.
3. Penygroes Park Project Update
There has not been much development since the last meeting. The Committee saw plans adding a second floor onto the pavilion, which would serve as a Youth Centre.
Alun Lewis said that he has applied to the Community Council for money for a skate-park, seating and trees. In addition, he has requested funding for interpretation board and an information board at Spien Road at the bottom end of Penygroes.
He stated that Llandybïe Community Council already has funds for lighting for the multi-purpose ballpark and there is no danger of it having to be repaid.
The next meeting of the Park Steering Group is Thursday meeting, 7th November 2007.

Events
Strawberry Tea - Event went well as expected but figures raised at this event are not available for this meeting.
Flower Show - Over £250 raised for the Gardening Club overall. Although the number of entries was down, the number of people attending was up. The demonstration was popular but many people would have preferred if had taken place a little later.
Walking Treasure Hunt – although a nice day, only two people turned up for the event with a financial loss of £75, although it was well advertised locally. The poor turnout may have been due to the poor summer we have experienced and residents taking advantage of the good weather on that day.
B in the Park - This event for the local youth went well (see the CDO report further down).
Party Fun Day – Unfortunately, owing to lack of support, this event will need to be cancelled although there was a great deal booked for the day including a hog roast, bouncy castle and climbing wall. Cancellation Proposed - Julian Tandy, Seconded – Mark Waygood.

We had a brilliant evening last Friday (Dydd Santes Dwynwen) in the upstairs room of the Badgers, Blaenau. Carmarthenshire company Gwingar talked us through 8 different wines and how they complemented the tastes from 2 different food menus (red wine menu & white wine menu).
Caryl & Julian Tandy had worked really hard preparing the food and Eleanor did an excellent job as a waitress for the evening.
