Mayor Ross Siemens is inviting Abbotsford elementary children in grades K-5 to take part in a contest to design the annual Christmas card.

Every year Mayor and Council send out many electronic Christmas cards across the city and province. Adding children’s artwork to the card adds an extra element of cheer. Elementary students from across the city are encouraged to create and submit a festive Christmas drawing that could be selected for the cover of the Mayor’s official 2024 Christmas card.
