Santa Claus is coming to Jefferson
Oak Ridge. Santa Claus will arrive to fulfill the dreams of Jefferson Township students when he comes to town on Saturday, Dec. 5.
It will soon be that time of year again when children everywhere anxiously await the arrival of Santa Claus, and the Jefferson Township Recreation Department will help fulfill those dreams even before Dec. 25 arrives.
So gather up those eager children and join Santa, Mrs. Claus, and Rudolph on Saturday, December 7 at the Community Lodge at Camp Jefferson located at 81 Weldon Road.
Santa will visit with the children from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and hand out candy canes and good wishes.
In addition to visiting with Santa, there will be holiday music, children’s’ coloring pages, opportunities to write letters to Santa at the North Pole, and Santa will have small gifts for the children. Everyone is invited to come and join in the excitement and encouraged to bring their cameras, smart phones, and/or other electronic devices to catch those memorable shots of a child on Santa’s lap.
A beverage and food area will be hosted by the Jefferson Township Middle School Student Council and the Red Cross Club members with items available for a nominal fee. The students will also conduct a Bake Sale to benefit Toys for Tweens.
Also stop by the North Pole Cinema at the Camp Jefferson Theater hosted by Jefferson Highlights’ Art Bonito for some holiday movies, and the Train Station at Camp Jefferson will be open to view the beautiful train displays constructed by the BD&W Railroad Club.
