This past Sunday, Santa met with children in Vankleek Hill over breakfast at the community centre. The annual event always attracts a crowd of local families. A full breakfast was served by Evelyn Bernique and volunteers. Santa’s elves made an appearance, with a gift for each child. All proceeds from the event go to Champlain Minor Sports, which helps families who may not be able to afford registration costs. Here are photos from the event by Review photographer Janice Winsor.
