I heard about this site on Radio Shetland tonight and went on for a look: www.shetlandhamefarin.com/index.phpI think this is a very important event and especially when I hear that there is going to be a Tammie Anderson Memorial Concert. I think we need to make links now to this event and to actively welcome Hamefarers to Northmavine and encourage them to link to our website and chat on the forum if possible. What better way to get a flavour of what Northmavine has to offer. I have just sent an email to ask for a link to our website on the Eshaness page. Pat |

Good for you Pat! Northmavine should have a central role in celebrating one of her most famous sons.

I was at an event in the new Museum & Archives yesterday where this was discussed. The Hamefarin committee are looking for ideas and you can contact them through the link on the site.
They have a day in Northmavine in mind so here's your chance to get things planned. I ken they're also speaking about having celebrations about Tammie Anderson who would be 100 in 2010 had he still been with us.

Hello All!
A group of us are coming for the Hamefarin. Will there be any special events in Northmavine?
I do check out the website, but was wondering if anyone here knew of any events.
Thank you!

Hi hampdenquilts. I'm not sure, but perhaps Maree might know if there's anything particularly going on in Northmavine? On the Hamefarin website, it just seems to say - June 17th - Local Trips and Events (North Mainland).

Hello all and Merry Christmas to you!
We are very excited that we will be coming "home" this year. Does anyone know of any events planned? I do read the Hamefarin newsletter, but they still only list "events" Will I be seeing any of you? I hope!

Hi Hampden I'm not sure of the details yet, but there's definately a bus trip to the North Mainland which will include a visit to Northmavine. Volunteers at Tangwick Haa will also be on hand to help folk with any information on geneology they might require or just be able to give more info on homesteads that distant relatives may have come from/living relatives etc. I'll find out some more details in the new year and post them here. |

Thank you Maree. We found my Grandfather's house quite by accident last visit, but would love to get more information and any stories of the family there. Also looking forward to meeting any family while we are there. AND meeting friends, of course!!
