It may have been earlier
than St Andrew’s Day, but in Maybole it was the day of
the big switch on of the town’s Christmas lights,
organised by Maybole Community Association. The
entertainment started at 4pm in the Town Hall and Magic
Malky kept the fun going from then on with plenty of
music and dance to keep everyone happy. Carrick Academy
choir opened the concert with “I wish it could be
Christmas every day” and choirs from Cairn Primary, St
Cuthbert’s Primary and Gardenrose Primary kept the
seasonal music going. Chi-kaz dancers also performed. At
5.30pm, everyone made their way outside as Maybole Pipe
Band marched from the library to the Town Hall followed
by Santa and his special friends. These included Owen
Grant and Zoe Lamont, Gala King and Queen of Carrick, as
well as South Ayrshire Provost Helen Moonie. Then it was
time to count down for the big switch on and as the
lights lit up snow started falling. Afterwards there was
a disco for under 12s back inside the hall. |
