Saving Santaland

We have sponsors lined up. We have the Chestnut Ridge Casino building reserved. We have not, as of yet, received any opposition from the relevant public employees union. We have spoken with them.

We will be having a great event for kids at the top of the sledding hill. As in past years, they'll be able to write a letter to Santa, do some crafts, get their faces painted while waiting to sit on Santa's lap. Yes, we have a Santa Claus.

After sitting on Santa's lap and telling him what they want, the kids will congregate in groups of about 50 to sing Christmas songs, have a cookie or candy cane and enjoy some hot cocoa.

Among the sponsors who are being so generous are Tops, the Bills, Dave's Christmas Shop, Drew Cerza of the National Buffalo Wing Festival, and others are pending.

This event, being organized by Revitalize Buffalo does need volunteers to help set up and decorate on Friday afternoon, and to help run the program on Saturday and Sunday from 9-3.

If you're able to help out, please let us know via our website at SaveSantaland.wnymedia.net

The kids'll thank you.
