Children's Christmas Party
For the 5th successive year, families with young children were invited to a Christmas party presented jointly by Alpha Omega Life Care, Inc. and Delta Kiwanis.
On Saturday afternoon 35 or so young folks anxiously awaited Santa’s appearance at the Community Center. Lavish decorations brightened the room, along with giant snowmen and Christmas tree. There were snacks and crafts to do, Pastor Carpenter read the Christmas Story, and…finally! Reindeer on the roof, and Ho! Ho! Ho! In came Santa, bag slung over his shoulder, beard groomed to perfection, red suit and black boots!
The line formed to assure Santa that behavior had been perfect all year, and to recite a list of desired rewards. Santa presented each of his petitioners with a pre-house visit momento---some toddlers walked away with a teddy bear larger than themselves!
Lest it be thought that all was perfect, some tears and reluctance was displayed---some little ones are not yet comfortable with Santa!
Photographs captured the event, and parents may stop by the Alpha Omega Life Care, Inc. office to view photos and to order prints---call 895-4104.
Thanks to Alpha Omega Life Care, Inc. and the Kiwanis group, who devote so much time, effort, and dollars to this annual event. This is community service and spirit at it’s best!
If you couldn’t make it this year, don’t miss ’07 when we’ll do it again---see ya there! (Submitted by Ken Farrow)
