Reindeer at the Park - Bo'ness

Well, that’s a wrap for 2025!!

Apologies for the long post, but we have a few people to thank for making this year’s Reindeer at the Park possible.

Firstly, a huge thank you to David and Maggie Ness. What began many years ago in their garden, with a small projector in their front room, grew year by year as families came along to watch Santa in his workshop. The reindeer soon followed, and before long the event outgrew their driveway and moved to Newtown Park, with David leading the way.

David and Maggie have very generously covered the cost of the reindeer every single year, including this year, even after David stepped back from the event. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you both for the joy you’ve brought to our wee toon and all the children, and will continue to bring for years to come.

We’d also like to thank:

• Ayrshire Reindeer Ltd for their beautiful reindeer
• Newtown Park for hosting us
• Steedsy for kindly providing the trailer
• Our balloon artist, Danlei Chen
• Our face painter, Louisa Nimmo
• Our Queen Sophie and Chief Lady Lucy
• Steven Black for driving our Queen and Chief Lady
• Our piper, Ian Simpson, for piping them into the grounds
• Brogan and Gillian for helping with the drinks
• Steven Harkins for capturing so many wonderful photos
• Robin, Billy Simpson, Big Chris, Young Mason and his friend for helping with set up and pack down

Apologies if I have missed anyone!

We hope you all had a fabulous time at Reindeer at the Park and welcome any feedback, either in the comments or via a wee message. As this is a yearly event, we only get one chance to try new ideas. We understand there were longer waits for some this year and thank you sincerely for your patience.

What matters most to us is seeing the smiles on the children’s faces, and we feel that was achieved again.

Finally, a huge thank you to our wee team. This was our first year organising the event between the four of us, and we’re incredibly proud of how it went.

If you’re still reading, thank you for bearing with us. Wishing you and your families a wonderful Christmas, and we’ll see you next year! 🎄✨
