LIONS FREE GROTTO AND WINTER WONDERLAND
AT WYEVALE GARDEN CENTRE
PAGE 4 • FESTIVE NEWS • DECEMBER 2015
A visit to Santa’s Grotto is one of the highlights for children in the weeks before
Christmas Day. With huge excitement they wait their turn to enter the Grotto for a chat
with Santa and to tell him what Christmas presents they want while mum and dad
and sometimes grandparents listen in to get some ideas – or often to shake a head in
disbelief when one of the little darlings asks for an exceptionally pricey present. But
Santa is an old hand at this and always handles the situation perfectly.
The Lions Club has been helping Santa
at his popular Grotto for well over a
quarter of a century. It opened on
Saturday November 14 and will be open
every weekend – Saturday and Sunday –
from llam to 4pm. Several thousand
youngsters will pop in for a chat and a
sweet – and now that everyone has a
camera facility on the mobile phone a
picture with Santa for the family album.
Lions Club members consider it a
privilege to serve the community
throughout the year, but especially
during the festive season when they can
help keep alive some of the wonderful
traditions which form part of the
celebration of Christmas.
And, it’s all free. But if families want
to give a donation to the Lions charity
fund to aid local projects that would be
greatly appreciated. Last year the amount
donated was over £4,000 and readers of
Festive News will see how their
generosity was well used to support a
wide range of local deserving causes.
Thank you.
CHRISTMAS RAFFLE
This year Lions are introducing a
special Christmas Raffle and inviting
visitors to try their luck at winning some
great prizes. Teas or breakfasts with
Santa can also be booked direct with the
Garden Centre and the children receive a
present.
The photographs remind us of all the
children who met Santa in his Grotto last
Christmas. Look forward to seeing you
all again this Christmas.
