Dear Santa’s,
It is that time of year, everyones decorating, the awful Christmas jumpers are out in force & people are staring to talk about Santa Pub Crawl. Unfortunately, Santa’s, we will not be doing the pub crawl this year, but it’s not goodbye from us, it is just a year off!
Since the Pub Crawl began in 2005 the event has been a great excuse for friends to get together over Christmas and have a good old knees up, with the bars and pubs offering great drinks deals & all of the wristband money going to charity. This format worked so well for many years, as you SPC veterans are aware! In the last couple of years the format had changed somewhat, and for the worse. The drinks offers weren’t there as bars got complacent, unnecessarily heavy handed bouncers were employed in certain establishments demanding ‘donations’ from people who had already paid for wristbands and we were forced into changing the direction of the Pub Crawl for other peoples profit. This event is 100% for charity and we have never taken a penny.
Heswall has changed a great deal since we started and we think that it is time for a break. We know not all of you will agree, and we are sure there will be an alternative event, of some format, for you all to attend on the 23rd.
Stay safe Santa’s & keep hold of that costume, because you will be needing it when we come back in force, 2015!
Merry Christmas
