Santa Visits Burleith

By Sarah and Tom Strike

On Sunday afternoon, December 14, Santa took time out of his busy schedule to pay a holiday visit to more than a dozen Burleith families. Santa arrived with his hearty ho, ho, ho’s, jingling bells, and stockings filled with gifts for nearly 30 excited children.

Except for a few little ones who were a tad bit scared of his blustery good cheer, most were eager to sit on Santa’s lap and confide their wishes for American Girl dolls and Play Stations, to name a few, as the man in red listened intently.

Thank you so much, Santa Claus, for helping our wonderful neighborhood continue this truly magical tradition!
