The 2010 Harrogate at Christmas Campaign is now underway, following a
successful phone-in on StrayFM on 30th July. Click the link above to
download the response form to support the 2010 Christmas Lights.
In 2009 Fleur Bremner of the Harrogate International
Festival co-ordinated all the programme of entertainment, aided by
StrayFM and Harrogate College. Harrogate Lions brought
Father Christmas.
Free Hot Chocolate was dispensed by Cedar
Court Hotel to keep the public warm on a cold and windy evening. St
Peter’s Church held a Carol Concert from 6.30 which was recorded and
broadcast on BBC Radio York last November and again on
Christmas Day.
The prizes for the 2009 Big Raffle were drawn
following the
switch-on click here for a full list of winning
tickets. Some fantastic prizes were donated by local businesses - see the
Roll of Honour

Look
out for “We Support Harrogate at Christmas” baubles in shop windows - and ask those shops
that aren’t displaying them why they aren’t!
Thanks are due to the
Retailers’
Forum led by Frank Di Lorenzo of Debenhams and David
Horth of the Victoria Centre plus former Mayor Councillor John Fox of
Henshaws. Without their perseverance, Harrogate at Christmas would not have
happened in 2009.
