Club president Gareth Watkins announced: “More children and people to see this year; more money to raise and more Rotary and local good causes to benefit. “It is all very positive and we are looking forward to getting the Rotary Santa Sleigh on its way.”
The festive programme is the biggest – and most ambitious – that Shawbury and Mid Shropshire Rotary Club has undertaken. Added to its familiar itinerary is the Asda supermarket and the housing areas of Sundorne and Mount Pleasant.
There will be a total of 15 sleigh outings between November 20 when Santa is in the Square for the switching on the town’s Christmas lights and December 23 when the sleigh concludes its visits at Tesco.
