Edinkillie Hall 50/50 Club
In an effort to have regular funds to help with the upkeep of the Hall,
we are running a 50/50 Club. For as little as £2 per month you can support
your local Hall and be in with a chance of winning a cash prize EVERY MONTH!!
How does it work? Members of the club make a monthly payment. 50% of the
money collected goes to help with the Hall upkeep and 50% is paid out in prize money
through a monthly draw for the members of the club.
How much does it cost? The minimum payment is £2 per month which gives
you one entry into the monthly draw but you can pay for as many entries each month as you like.
How is the money collected? Payments are made by Standing Order to the
Edinkillie Hall 50/50 Club, on the 1st or 15th of the month which you can cancel at any time,
or if you prefer a single payment can be made annually.
How much can I win? There will initially be 1 prize with the winnings dependent
on the number of entries. As the club grows, so will the value and number of prizes.
Interested? Do you want more information or wish to join the Edinkillie Hall 50/50 Club
please contact thehall@braemoray.com.
Update
The 1st draw took place on 21st February 2012 at the Bowling Club Practice night.
Mary Pratt made the draw and the winner was Mr. Jim Symon

Edinkillie Names and meanings
|
An occasional feature explaining the origins of our local placenames.
|
Lochnuan, from the Gaelic Loch, a lake, and the Gaelic Uan, a
lamb, cognate with the Latin Agnus, Welsh Oen. As is usually
the case, it occurs here in the genitive plural with the preposition
of prefixed, forming the word Nanuan, of the lambs. Uanan is
the diminutive form. The loch of the lambs.
|
Belvlair, from the Gaelic Baile, a residence, and Blair, Blar, a
plan or field, and by extension a field of battle. The residence on
plain.
|
Edenkillie. — The first part of this word is from the Gaelic^
Eudan, the face, literally a brow ; hence by extension it is applied
to the face of a hill. It is also found as Aodann, and contracted
to Ediji, Eden, Edan, and Edn. The latter part is from the Gaelic
Coille, a wood, and in topography takes the forms of Kel, Kil^
Kelly, Killy, and Kyle, the wood. Signifies the woody hillside or
braeface.
|
Tillyglens. — The prefix here is from the Gaelic Tilach, a little
hill or mound, and variously found as Tilla, Tillow, Tilly, and
Tilli. In an Irish glossary it is given as the equivalent of Briy
which is another word for a little hill, and cognate with which is
the English Brae. The latter part is from the English Glen, and
has the same signification as the Gaelic Gleann, and though nearly
identical in form, the one has not been derived from the other, the
one being Anglo-Saxon, and of much later date than the Gaelic
Gleann, Welsh Glyn, The hill glen.
