Join Our Virtual Secret Santa Event
We know these cancellations are disappointing. So, in the spirit of keeping the Festive Season a bit festive, we have set up a Virtual Secret Santa event for members. It will work like this:
If you want to participate, please fill out this simple online form by 12 noon on Thursday, 9 December.
You will receive an email from our CTU administrator, who will randomly assign you someone for whom you need to buy a gift small enough to fit into a mail slot. The gift should be worth no more than ZAR 75.
You will need to deliver this gift to the person’s home (hopefully secretly, into their mail slot) no later than Saturday, 18 December. If you prefer being the Secret Santa for someone near to you, you’ll be able to note so on the online form.
We will host a virtual party on Sunday, 19 December, at 4 pm, to open our Secret Santa presents and enjoy a beverage of our choice with each other. Stay tuned for more details about the party.
