Samantha, a Southwestern Elementary student, talks with the Jolly Old Elf and Mrs. Claus during Saturday morning’s “breakfast with Santa” at South Gallia High School/Middle School in Mercerville. Children who attended had the chance to sit on Santa’s knee and tell him of their Christmas wishes.
What better breakfast to have with Santa than pancakes and chocolate milk? Children from across the area filtered in on Saturday morning to visit Santa Claus at SGHS at a breakfast hosted by the school’s PRIDE organization.
MERCERVILLE — The South Gallia High School PRIDE organization recently hosted Old Saint Nick for a “breakfast with Santa” at the high school/middle school in Mercerville.
According to PRIDE advisor Tina Johnson, the event was organized by the PRIDE membership as a way to raise funds for their convention in April.
This was the first year that PRIDE — an alcohol and drug free youth organization — has hosted Santa and Mrs. Claus for their community breakfast and Johnson hopes that it will be something that students look forward to continuing next year as a means by which to promote a drug-free lifestyle to younger children and to raise funding for their organization.
