This year the Saintfield Christmas Fair will be on Thursday 8th December 2011, starting at 7:30pm.

As usual there will be a miniature steam train, a bouncy castle, bands, Santa’s Grotto and a stage for live performances of choirs and other acts.

The lower part of Main Street and Comber Street will be closed to traffic from around 6:30pm.

Many shops will be open late so come and start the Christmas season with some fun, christmas carols and shopping.

Saintfield Town Regeneration Committee organised a fundraising evening at the Tudor Cinema in Comber on 26th October.

Over fifty people enjoyed a private screening of “The Quiet Man” and raised nearly £500 towards purchasing new Christmas lights for the Main Street.  Thanks to Sam and June Kerr for making all the arrangements.

Thanks also to Sam Kerr who organised and distributed a fireside quiz.  This also raised nearly £500 for the same objective.
