Christmas in Cooroy is celebrating 15 years and it is going to be bigger and better than ever.
One of the new additions, is the King and Queen of Christmas in Cooroy.
This is a fundraising pageant and the male and female that raise the most funds for Christmas in Cooroy will be crowned the King or Queen of the festival.
The fun doesn’t stop there of course, after being crowned and cloaked, the King and Queen take pride of place on the King and Queen float in the Bendigo Bank Street Parade.
But the other participants, don’t miss out. They become the royal courtiers and accompany the newly crowned royalty on the float.
“Thousands of dollars are raised each year by our volunteers and the volunteers on the organising committee thought that this was a great way to help with fundraising while also encouraging volunteer participation and a bit of healthy competition as well,” event manager Danielle Taylor said.
You can raise funds in any way you like as long as it is legal. When you register you will receive an official fundraising pack to help you get started.
There are lots of new surprise additions to the festival this year and we have some fantastic sponsors on board to help support the event, but there is also a significant amount of fundraising needed each year to keep this the fabulous free event that it has evolved to.
The theme for the Bendigo Bank Street Parade is a ‘Moment In Time’ and this could be your moment in the spotlight to remember for all time.
