Dunfermline's first ever Santa Dash caused quite a stir on the High Street on Saturday!

Shoppers were taken by surprise as a crowd of Father Christmases ran down from the New Row to the Glen Gates as a novel curtain-raiser for the switch-on of the town's Christmas lights.

Organised by Dunfermline's Rotary Club and supported by Dunfermline Delivers, the event raised money for local good causes. 

Graham Steedman, Rotary community convener, said: "The shoppers were taking by surprise a bit there I think!"
