FUND RAISERS –

SEPTEMBER – Travis Blundell at the Lobethal Hotel is doing a great job raising funds via lucky squares on Friday nights. Go in and see Travis, have a lovely meal and buy a lucky square or two. If you win, it pays for your meal. Great food and great atmosphere at the Lobethal Hotel.

Go there on a Friday night during October, have a fantastic meal in an old traditional hills hotel, buy a meat tray ticket and, if you win, feed the family for the next week or two.

NOVEMBER – The Centennial Hall committee are putting on a movie on 29 & 30 November. All proceeds will go to the 23 December Lobethal Pageant Inc. Lovely family movie “The Santa Claus” with Tim Allen in it, is hilarious and will make a great night out. Thank you to the Lobethal Centennial Hall Committee.

FOOD STALLS – We have lots of lovely stalls lined up for the pageant, with lots of variety. Forms to apply can be found on our website. More on that later.

FLOATS – It’s time to start thinking about your float. There are fantastic prizes to be won, and it’s a good way to advertise your business, club or group. Forms and information can be found on our website http://lobethalpageant.com.au

FATHER CHRISTMAS – After some negotiation with Father Christmas, we have agreed to provide him with a new state-of-the-art sleigh. He insisted on a late model sleigh that could deliver parcels quickly and efficiently to the fast growing Australian population. It comes with an unlimited kilometre 15 year warranty, star gazing navigation system, has low emissions, is very fuel efficient, comes in a variety of colours, has a verbal command system, and a whisper quite ride. Thanks Barrow and Bench for donating the materials. If you want to join in the fun of making this, please contact Niell Schubert.

INFORMATION NIGHT – We are pleased to announce that we will be hosting an information night on Wednesday 16 October at 7.00 pm in the Senior Citizens Hall. Entry is via the side entrance in the lane-way. We would like the community to know everything about their pageant. So if you’re passionate about holding the pageant on 23 December, you’re invited. Come and ask questions, or give us some ideas of what you might like to see. If you want to give a gold coin donation towards the hire, that would be very much appreciated.

The committee want to say thank you to everyone who is supporting our work, as we return your Christmas Pageant in Lobethal to 23 December in 2024.
