Here's what to do to design a sparkling Christmas light for Bonnybridge
It may only be June but thoughts are already turning to Christmas in one district town.
Volunteers in Bonnybridge have great plans to brighten up their town centre this festive period and are launching a competition to help this happen.
They want a youngster to design a new Christmas light which will be proudly displayed in the heart of Bonnybridge.
As well as having their light design created and displayed, the winning child will be invited to switch on the town’s Christmas lights, alongside another community hero.
The Bonnybridge Community Hub team are now looking for businesses to support their project by helping towards the commissioning of the new light which will cost around £1500.
Entry forms are due to go out to all pupils at the area’s three primary schools – Antonine, Bonnybridge and St Joseph’s before the summer holidays. Parents are asked to check school bags for details of how their youngster can take part.
Completed entries can be handed in to Bonnybridge Community Hub in Bridge Street.
These will then be judged by Councillors Jack Redmond and Billy Buchanan, along with representatives from Lightways.
