Christmas Pageant –
Change of Plan

This year’s Christmas Pageant is going to be a static event where the floats are going to be stationary and the public will walk around to look at them. As a club we have decided that we will not be involved in this year’s Christmas Pageant.

HOWEVER, we still would love to spread the Christmas Cheer and are going to make our Christmas fun day even BIGGER and BETTER.

Woodside Nippers –

Ironman, 1km Run and Flags were the events this week and it looked like everyone had a great time on the beach. It was also great to see all the parent helpers in the orange vests, we couldn’t do it without our Volunteers so thank you to all of you!
