Christmas Sleigh - 2011

 

Well it's that time again, can you believe it? The rallying call went out during this week's Club B&F night for all our club members, partners and friends to get behind the Christmas Sleigh once more for our clubs Christmas collection: Well to be more accurate alongside, in front and anywhere else you can find someone with a little spare change to help some of our great local charities.
Last year's Collection saw a staggering £6565 pounds raised, this money went on to support some of the great and needy charities who work tirelessly in our community supporting our children, friends, neighbors and elderly. - People in and around Swindon really did showed their fabulous generosity last year!

The Sleigh itself has been through a major refurbishment this year which started back in August with many Rotarians working long and hard to create a Christmas Sleigh to be proud of. There are only six weeks left until Christmas and the challenging roster of appearances, static supermarket collections and the Street collections is being drawn up as we speak.
This year we are aiming high and want to beat last year's fantastic total; we know it will be a tall order especially considering the economic climate but I'm sure that with guts, determination and a long white beard with red cloak well make it the best year ever!

Test Run

Keep an eye out it will be coming to your neighbourhood real soon!

Here is our Christmas Sleigh after its refurbishment in a top secret location on the outskirts of the North Pole.
