sti pretender Posted October 25, 2010 Posted October 25, 2010 (edited) Hi folks, UPDATE Date now confirmed as 12th December 2010. Route has been notified to the police, Santa Run is on as usual in the morning but will be clear by the time we are heading through. Santa's have reported for duty. Donation forms have been handed in. Stickers being made by GBSTI. Meal at Peter was a great success and loads of Raffle prizes. Shopping trip done (1 Wii, 1 Xbox, 2 TV/DVDs, 4 Boomboxes, 2 Karaoke machines, 4 digital cameras, loads of toys, games, DVD's CD's). Storage of present sorted. Prize for best decorated sorted. Meeting point will be ASDA Robroyston just of the M80 J2 - G33 1AD. Time 10.30 - 11.00 which gives plenty time for a chat and to decorate the cars. Convoy leaves 12.15 sharp, route will be available on the day. Arrival at hospital 1.00pm. Cars with presents to the main entrance everyone else will be directed to the carpark. Everyone meets at the main entrance for the publicity photos. The hospital lets us use the canteen facilities while Santa visits one of the wards to hand out a few presents. After the last couple of years a lot of us have headed to the Harvester at Hillington for a bite to eat. Robert Edited December 11, 2010 by STI Pretender

sti pretender Posted December 12, 2010 Author Posted December 12, 2010 Thanks to everyone who came along today all the cars looked great. Big thanks to Graeme for the stickers and fitting them all. Unfortunely the hospital was unable to provide staff for the us to visit a ward but they were overwhelmed with the generousity the club show donating all the presents. You'll be able to see the full write-up in True Grip, if anyone has good photos send me a copy and we'll get some included in the article. It only leaves me to say thaks to everyone who has contributed to this years Santa Cruise. Oh... and thanks for the tinsel attack. :biggrinsanta: Lets see the photo :waving-santa:.
