Santa Claus heading to fairgrounds for breakfast
Santa Claus will be arriving in Greene County a little early this year.
The Greene County Department of Recreation will be welcoming Santa and Mrs. Claus as the guests of honor for “Breakfast with Santa” this Saturday from 9 to 11 a.m. at Greene County Fairgrounds.
The breakfast will be in the 4-H Building’s lower level and is $8 per person. Breakfast will be prepared by Dan Wagner, a culinary arts instructor at Greene County Career & Technology Center.
Children will also receive a picture with Santa, a Santa hat, Christmas crafts and a special treat. A Christmas coloring contest will be held, with prizes for winners in different age categories.
Local children are also invited to send letters to Santa in care of the Department of Recreation from now until Dec. 11. Any child who wants to receive a personalized letter from Santa can send a letter with a completed letter request form to Greene County Department of Recreation, ATTN: Santa Claus, 107 Fairgrounds Road, Waynesburg, PA 15370.
Letter request forms include the child’s contact and basic information, including gender, age and any gifts requested from Santa, and must be completed by a parent or guardian. The “Dear Santa” template is available online at www.co.greene.pa.us.
A completed form must accompany each letter, and the Department of Recreation is asking people to limit one request per child. Children will receive their letters before Christmas.
