Letters to Santa Claus!Since everyone knows that Santa is a subscriber to the Potter County News, youngsters from around the area,

local daycares, and the school send their Christmas wishes to us to share with Santa and our readers! Some of the older kids wrote their very own letters, so we left those just as we received them so Santa

would know exactly what they wanted in their own words! May all your Christmas wishes come true! Enjoy!

Greetings, Friends!Just a note of thanks for your loyal patronage this past year!

Kolson Hawkinson took a look in Santa’s bag of treats while his little sister, Kaidra, took a closer look at the jolly old elf. Kaidra was meeting Santa for the first time this holiday season.

Eli Phillips (LaDonna and Trey) brought his wish list to share with Santa during toy night at the John Deere store in Gettysburg. He wasn’t taking any chance that Santa might not be able to read his handwriting, so Eli carefully went over the list with Santa Claus to make sure the list was perfectly clear. Kids of all ages came out to the annual toy night event on Dec. 2 to visit with Santa and give parents an opportunity to do some shopping for the holidays.
