CROSSGATES Gala Committee have managed to secure funding from grants and kind donations and are handing out gala bags to the kids on Monday evening.
Youngsters will know it is the gala team coming through the specially decorated tractor which will transport the bags.
The committee’s Laura Wheately said: “It will be leaving Windmill Knowe around 6.45pm then hopefully getting to the whole village during the evening.
“We must keep to social distancing so bags will be left at the kids’ drive/ garden so there won’t be crowds of youngsters queuing.”
Starting at Windmill Knowe the tractor will then be on its way to the Mitchell Estate at Baxter Road.
The village gala was called off last month through the coronavirus crisis but the committee was determined that the children should get their gala bags.
