The Long
Eaton Chamber of Trade ran a competition for a junior school
youngster to assist the Mayor of Erewash, Councillor Robert
Parkinson, in the switching on of the Town's Christmas Lights.
The
winner, Lauren Fletcher, from Sawley
Junior School was presented a certificate from the Chamber of
Trade and a gift from the Mayor. Lauren's winning entry read "I
want to switch on Long Eaton's Christmas lights because my family
and friends say I light up their lives"
Lauren
attended the Town Hall presentation by the Mayor and then travelled
in the civic car along with Santa to perform the switch on of
the lights.
Santa's
goodies were sponsored by both Tesco
and Erewash
Borough Council.
