Santa lights up town

There was a great turn out for the switching on of Kilcullen's lights on Wednesday evening.

Children of all ages were delighted when Santa came over the Bridge and arrived outside Dr Michael Kelly's Surgery to begin the countdown for the switch on. Santa's helpers were perched on ladders throughout the street to make sure that everything went to plan.

The Christmas lights are organised by Kilcullen Community Action. Spearheading the project this year was J J Warren. While there has been no formal fundraising for the lights this year, it is still a very expensive exercise and donations would be particularly welcome. They can be sent to Kieran Forde, Main Street, or given to any KCA member.
