Monikie Country Park staff ‘deeply frustrated’ after toilet vandalism

A post on the ANGUSalive Countryside Adventure Facebook page said: “We’re sorry to start 2025 with a post like this, but as you can see from these pictures, some people think it’s acceptable to leave our facilities at Monikie looking like this.

“We’re deeply frustrated to share these because not only are we working hard to keep our services running smoothly for everyone and providing a positive experience for others, we now need to spend considerable time sorting vandalism like this.

“Acts like this drain valuable time and resources from us, which we’re sure that you would agree would be better spent elsewhere.

“With that in mind, we kindly ask for your help: Please keep an eye out for any suspicious activity.

“Report anything you see to our team.

“If you are doing this, stop it.

“Thanks in advance for your support, we hope to see you in our parks soon in 2025.”
