2008's Christmas Experience was a fantastic success. Here are some of the pictures from the event. The Bowley Office have copies of all the Photos taken of the groups who attended this years experience. All groups that visited Santa should have been given an order form for further copies with their Photo. If you would like to order more photos of your group, additional order forms can be downloaded here |
Christmas is a busy time of year for Santa's little helpers. Over the first week of December 2008, over 1000 children and adults descended on Bowley campsite to visit Father Christmas.
In fact, such was demand this year, that SuperHeros Batman and Robin once again had to take a break from their normal duties to help out, along with their imfamous helper "BatMonkey!" On arrival, Batman and Robin took all the childrens photos, so that Santa would know who's been good and who's not been "quite so good". Unfortunately that mishchievous Robin had a habit of sneaking onto the back of the photos. (No presents for him this year!) Have a look at your groups photo - you may find him lurking at the back.! After writing letters to Santa describing their wildest Christmas wishes, they move on through the Post Office, where they post their letters, to Rudolf being tended by the Clown in his stable. Next on the agenda was a visit to Santa's Bakery where all those delicious Christmas cakes and biscuits are made. That is of course, when Santa's helpers stop throwing flour at each other.
And finally, after a visit to Granny Christmas, where all the visitors made a Christingle, they moved on to see the man they'd all been waiting for, Santa himself. |
