Santa’s sleigh ready to make the rounds
THE Rotary Club of Church and Oswaldtwistle is planning another successful Santa campaign.
The club’s Santa’s sleigh makes an annual lap around Oswaldtwistle and surrounding areas. This year’s is from December 1 to 21, manned by a team of Rotary volunteers.
The sled has been refurbished and looks smart in its new livery and illuminated signs, and has a new sound system.
Santa will be supporting the Christmas lights switch-on in Aspen Fold, West End on December 4.
Ken Freeman, fundraising manager, said: “Taking Santa and the sleigh around the district is a project showing the real face of Rotary, and sincere thanks go to the public for contributing so generously, usually in excess of £3,000 all of which goes to local, national and international charities and good causes.”
