Well, the Rotary Carols at Horsley Park fell victim to the weather.
We were able (thanks to Sal Foti of Foti Fireworks) and our Stage Engineer (Kieran Vella), to quickly cut two items from the schedule, fire the Fireworks 45 minutes early, allow Santa to walk through the crowd, hand out lollies to the kids (who then saw Santa climb onto an RFS fire-truck and head off to the North Pole), and we drew the $8,000 Raffle in double quick time before the rain hit hard and the Carols event came to a halt.
