Well the Christmas Raffle has been drawn, the lucky winners have been contacted and Santa's finished his rounds and we can can say that 2013 Phoenix Rotary Christmas events have been a huge hit in Horbury, Ossett and surrounding districts.
A massive thank you to the house holders on the streets Santa visited, who so generously filled Santa's little helper's buckets and also thanks to the local public who so generously bought our raffle tickets.
The profits from the Santa Sleigh Run event and the Christmas Raffle will go to Rotary Charities but mostly, at this time of year, in particular, will help us buy Christmas treats for some of the more needy, local, elderly folks in our district and also gifts of scented flowering plants for some of the blind and partially sighted people, also in our local district.
It would not be possible to name all the event organisers and participants who are made up of many dedicated and caring rotarians who have given of their valuable time, energy and enthusiasm in running and staffing these events.
Thank you one and all
Merry Christmas - Ho, Ho, Ho!
