Twas the night before Shuffle, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
Christmas jumpers were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that the weather would soon be fair

The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of Elsa danced in their heads.
Mam in her Elf hat, Dad in a Santa cap,
Finally settled our brains for a quick winter’s nap.

As tomorrow's the day we've long awaited
Will it pour down, we wait, our breath abated
The final thing we would like to say
Is that we hope you have a fantastic day

Good night all, see you tomorrow!

We're only 1 day away from Swansea Valley's first Santa Shuffle!! Just in case you've not got around to reading your emails, here's some information that you will find useful for tomorrow.

REGISTRATION
On the day, registration will open at 10:15. Please head to the registration table named in your 'Registration Information' email to sign in and collect your Shuffle Santa Hat. (Send us a message on here if you still don't know which table to register at) You don't need to bring anything with you, all we will need to know is the name you purchased your tickets under.

THE WALK
We will leave Ystradgynlais Rugby ground at 11am. The walk is all off road and suitable for buggy's and wheelchairs – just make sure you've decorated them : )

AFTER THE WALK
On return to the rugby ground you will be able to collect your certificate. Other activities payable on the day include face painting, hot dogs, a cake sale and Christmas stalls. New Age Photography will also be in Santa's Grotto to capture the moment your child meets the big man himself. We also have Christmas themed Minnie and Mickey Mouse to greet us.

FROZEN
If you were lucky enough to get tickets for the Frozen after-party, your hand will be stamped during registration. The Frozen after-party will begin at 12:30 and end at 2:30.

PARKING
There is limited parking at the main Rugby Club entrance. If you could walk to the venue – that would be great! Additional parking can be found further along Ynyscedwyn Road heading towards Glanrhyd, turn right towards the bowling green (entrance is on the same side of the road as the rugby field).

OTHER INFORMATION
This is a family event and we ask that all children are supervised by a responsible adult at all times. The organisers of this event are volunteers and accept no responsibility or liability for any loss, damage or injury during this event.

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow, fingers crossed the weather is on our side!
