we approach another

5 December. Other carols will be held in
Brassall on 27 November and Springfield
Central on 12 December.

13 December. The guys and girls will ride

their journey and delivering toys at the
Ipswich Showgrounds. Be sure to give
them a wave and a round of applause
when you see them riding by.

will be held on 31 December. Keep an eye
