Good afternoon Redcliffe!!
Wow, it's been a crazy couple of weeks but it's been fantastic to meet new people and be there to give new experiences to the young and the young at heart.
What sprouted as an idea over a few beers turned into an overwhelming response that quite frankly, we were unprepared for. So many people wanted to see the Christmas lights by boat and unfortunately we were not able to cater for everybody.
For those who tried to come on board but we couldn't fit in, thankyou for supporting us and we apologise for not being able to take you to see the wonderful lights on the canals.
For those who came on board, it was great to meet you and we hope you had a wonderful time.
For those who we didn't get back to... we are truly sorry, there has a lot going on in the background that I'm not really prepared to elaborate on, but our small admin team has taken a few knocks over the last couple of weeks and I haven't had the time to pick up the slack admin wise. But we've heard you, we've taken feedback on board, and we will be back next year bigger and better with a booking system, proper preparation, and even a fantastic competition for participants of the Christmas lights on the canals to show our appreciation for their efforts.
To show our appreciation for the support from the local community, I have contacted the page admins and donated a Coles voucher to a local in need. We didn't want to know who received it, nor did we want to decide who received it, so we have passed on the voucher and the RPC benevolent fund has identified someone who deserves a bit of Christmas cheer.
Thankyou to all, and we hope to meet many more of you next year to experience what truly is one of Redcliffe's little known delights.
Merry Christmas to all, be good, be safe and play cricket.
