Common Good Games

Well you know what the Olympic Games are And the Commonwealth Games. The Common Good Games are slightly different. Whereas the others need to flatten whole communities in the cities the they are held in to accommodate them.
The Common Good Games does the opposite. Here we are trying to create community - not knock it down.

Lets hear about your Games. Remember they don't need to be high powered physical games, they can be of your own invention. The more colourful and fun the better.

Kick the can
Hide and seek ???

Common Good meet-up - At Electron Club
What can we do to protect our Common Good? What are the dangers of privatising it? A major business bombardment has started to threaten our parks, our institutions, our open space. There are a few hackles beginning to rise as the business template for our city assets begins to unfold. This is not just a local but a growing national concern, in all our cities. Be good to set up a meeting with and invite Edinburgh campaigners, and other cities, through for some Glasgow hospitality, and to discuss inter city ideas, concerning the Common Good . What's happening with Glasgow's Campaign for the Common Good. Is there one?
