Annual Cookies with Santa Event a Success
This year’s Cookies with Santa had all the fun and holiday cheer of years past. We also had the exciting addition of Olaf, the snowman character from Frozen. Everyone enjoyed dancing with Olaf and it seemed limbo with him and Santa was a big hit for young and old! Santa made sure to visit with all the children and take a picture with those who wanted one.
We hope to see everyone back again next year!
