Santa’s Sleigh Route 2017
It is what all the children have been waiting for. The return of Santa’s Sleigh heralding the start
of Christmas. In the weeks before Santa finally delivers their presents the youngsters, in eager
anticipation dash out when they hear the Sleigh Bells ringing to tell Santa what they want him
to deliver on Christmas Eve. The efficient ones have already written their list. A chat and a sweet
and everyone is happy.
Lions Club has been helping Santa complete his traditional tour for over 40 years, even
through the snowdrifts - or worse still, torrential rain which soaks his snowy white beard.
