Kelowna – BC Transit and its regional partners* are getting into the holiday spirit with the return of the Santa Sleigh Bus and the Parade of Lights.
Santa Sleigh Bus
Join in the fun when the Santa Sleigh Bus rolls through the Central Okanagan from December 4-10, 2016. It will make more than 30 stops over seven days collecting food, toys and cash donations for the Salvation Army Christmas Hamper program.
This is the 13th year that the Santa Sleigh Bus fundraiser has been running in the region. Each year the donations collected enable the Salvation Army to help families in need over the holidays and year-round. It is a great way to contribute to the local community.
