THE little Helensburgh Winter Festival penguin mascot has been appearing in connection with the Festival for six years now...but no-one knows his name.
In his various outfits, his sports car or on his skates, the little penguin has become a weel kent figure about the town and he is getting fed up with being just 'The Penguin'.
So: this year, the Penguin Crew are appealing for people to come up with a name for him and whoever supplies the idea which is chosen will win – a penguin!
This time it is a big cuddly penguin supplied by Grasshopper Toys.
If you have a good idea for Penguin's name just go the the 'Helensburgh Winter Festival' Facebook page, look for the post about the event's nameless friend, and put your suggestion in a comment.
A Penguin Crew member said: “We will ask Santa to choose the name he thinks best suits our wee mascot and the winner will be able to collect their prize at the Winter Festival.”
