This year was the first time that the Annual Rotary Santa Sleigh came to the streets of Ashgrove.
Seizing the moment we showed up in numbers with Samwise, JJ, Chris Go, Rachel, Kerry, Emile, Matt, B1 and B2, Bill, Jono and myself attending across the four evenings.
With a smile on our faces and a tin in hand we swept through the streets to a mostly inviting reception. Knocking on as many doors as we could find we wished everyone a merry Christmas also recieving the quite a few donations as the Ashgrovians were quite generous.
Donation of the week would have to go to Bill for recieving a donation from a second storey balcony *high five moment*
Overall the week was a success for both the Rotary as well as the crew becoming a more connected with or surrounding community. It could also be said that the Rotary have expressed their gratitude and are hoping that the younger generations will assist in continuing and expanding this great tradition.
BRAVO guys and I look forward to next years Sleigh.
