This year\u2019s Kingaroy Christmas Carols organising committee will break tradition and NOT be asking businesses for sponsorship and donations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe organising committee appreciates that our businesses have had a tough year so we won\u2019t be door-knocking for support this year,\u201d Kingaroy and District Ministries Association committee member Felicity Cavill said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe theme for this year\u2019s carols is \u2018Blessed to be a Blessing\u2019.<\/p>\n

“We have been blessed in the past with businesses and individuals supporting the event and we thank them for their previous year’s sponsorship.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf there are businesses that would still like to support the carols they are most welcome to. We just won\u2019t be door-knocking. They have an option if they wish.\u201d<\/p>\n

Committee member Paul Morgan said there was a cost to put the event on and if people attending wanted to support it, that would also be great.<\/p>\n

“There will be collections on the night throughout the crowds to help cover costs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Highway Christian Church Riders will be collecting on the night.<\/p>\n

“The committee thanks them for their support in collecting donations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are hoping that these donations will cover costs and if there are any finances left over this will be donated to our local charities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Kingaroy Christmas Carols have been running for 14 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe organising committee are all volunteers who are passionate about sharing the biblical story of Christmas,\u201d Mrs Cavill said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year we will again have a live nativity scene. This was really popular last year. We have also organised more food stalls to make sure there is plenty for those attending.\u201d<\/p>\n
