The Central Frederick Neighbourhood Association is organizing an event to light up one of our streets with over 300 candles to create a runway for Santa’s reindeer and sleigh on Christmas Eve, and we are hoping to collect donations for the Waterloo Region Food Bank in the process.
Come and pick up a candle and bag during one of the following pickup times listed in the table below. Please bring a suggested donation of 1 non-perishable food item per candle (max of 4 candles per family). A table will be set up in the driveway – simply drop off your items in the donation box, pick up your candle/bag, and place your ballot for what street we should run the event on! If you prefer, you can make a financial donation to the Food Bank on their website https://www.thefoodbank.ca/

At sunset on Christmas Eve around 5pm, come out to the street we voted for, fill your bag(s) with snow about half-way, light your candle and place it in the snow in the bag. Then place the bag on the edge of the curb/boulevard. You can space each bag a few feet apart. Then, enjoy a walk around the neighbourhood with your family to see the street lit up for when Santa arrives.
It is a great opportunity to say hello to neighbours and enjoy the lights and a nice walk on Christmas Eve
What street will the Reindeer Runway be on?
You get to vote! When you come to donate your non-perishable food item, you can place your ballot for which street you’d like the Reindeer Runway to be on! You can also get an extra vote by volunteering to decorate your window for the Winter Window Walk!
