Moonta Christmas Pageant Shines Through

21 December 2010

The weather conditions were far from perfect but the rain held off and the winds abated a little to allow Moonta's Christmas Pageant to bring some special festive cheer to the town and especially the children. Many claim it was the best yet with all the colour and pageantry of over 30 quality floats with christmas and storybook themes, plenty of lolly giveaways and many children dressed in a variety of costumes joining in the celebrations.

A good crowd congregated at Queen Square after the pageant to take advantage of the food stalls and entertainment and some 100 remained on to brave the cool twilight conditions to enjoy and join in the singing of carols in the Square along with a number of talented local singers and choir groups.

Many volunteers and community groups contributed a lot of time and effort to the success of the day's festivities and it was a fitting end to a demanding but extremely successful year of 150 Years of Copper celebrations by the Moonta and District community.

Of course our Christmas events would not have been possible without the support of our generous sponsors, led by our Major Sponsors for the sixth consecutive year, Moonta Engineering and Traid Transport, and;
