THE Lochgelly Community Development Forum’s “Christmas Lights Group” would like to thank, Fife Council, The 4 Winds Trust and the staff of the Co-op, in Bank Street, Lochgelly, for their donations.
We would also like to thank Lochgelly High School’s music department, both the Pipe Band and the Brass Ensemble, for playing the music, members of The Lochs Choir leading the carol singing, and the Reverend John Magee for his Christmas sermon, also all the volunteers that made Lochgelly Christmas Lights Switch-On such a success.
Free colourful wands were handed out to all the children that attended. The Tree lights were switched on by Citizen of the Year John Gibbons and Junior Citizen of the year Remi Haddow.
The Lochgelly High School Pipe Band marched the crowds down to the Town Hall where Mr & Mrs Santa Claus were waiting to greet them. Tea/coffee were on offer as was lots of bargains at the stalls and a great night was had by all.
Raffle prizes went to: The Christmas Hamper was won by John Macdonald from Lochgelly; The Christmas Cake was won by Annette, from Lumphinnans; and the drinks hamper was won by D Johnston from Lochgelly. Other prize winners were: Carol Harton, Jack Ross, Elaine Stark, Lynn Caithness, Tony Mitchell and Natalie Turnbull.
It was not the best of weather on Wednesday night but we would like to thank you the people of Lochgelly, you did it again!! YOU came out in great numbers to support us.
