You better watch out, You better not cry, Better not pout, I’m telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town.
In Independence Township, Santa is coming to town on Saturday, Dec. 8, 12-3 p.m. at the Deer Lake Athletic Club, 6167 White Lake Road.
‘It’s a great opportunity for families to come and have a nice afternoon together; and a great opportunity for the kids to see Santa,? said Lisa Sargent of Independence Township Parks and Recreation, which is hosting Share Your Wish with Santa.
‘A lot of families get dressed up. It’s like a special outing for the holidays.?
Lunch will be provided by Deer Lake, while professional carolers will sing. For the children will be crafts such as activity placemats, coloring books, and cookie decorating.
After lunch, children will be able to write their own letters and personally give them to Santa, along with getting their picture taken with him.
‘Last year was the first year we’ve done it and it was a lot of fun,? said Sargent. ‘The families really enjoyed it, so we’re excited to do it again.?
Tickets are $14 for residents and $16 for non-residents. They can be purchased at the Independence Township Parks and Recreation office, 90 N. Main Street. For more information, call 248-625-8223.
