HOLLY JOLLY SANTA TOUR Article and Photography by Peeter Poldre

THE WHITEOAKS LORNE PARK COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION HOSTED THE HOLLY JOLLY SANTA TOUR ON DECEMBER 4TH. Due to the lack of snow, Santa wisely chose to travel through the neighbourhood on a horse-drawn sleigh. Children were then treated to a socially distanced visit with Santa where gift ideas for the holidays were discussed, often with parents within earshot. Hot chocolate was served to take the edge off a cool afternoon. Donations were accepted for Compass Food Bank. Here’s hoping that all the kids got what they asked for for Christmas.
