The chocolate wheel will be spinning plenty of hams, chooks and Christmas cakes.
Plus Santa will make an appearance with other family fun activities to be involved in.
These events are crucial in continuing to bring the community together, and after the cancellation last year due to the freak storm, it would be great to see a big crowd in attendance.
