President's Message - October 2024

The Octagon for the last many years has been at the pen of our president Kathy Drew. Kathy is the wonder woman behind all the workings, functioning and coordination of Friends of Fintry. We thank her for her continued contributions and dedication for the love of Fintry. She has passed the torch of The Octagon this month to me, Jaimie, as she is on a well deserved vacation to Scotland. She requested a new look with some colour and I hope you all truly enjoy as I am humbled and honoured.
