As you probably read here, Santa made his way to Broadalbin-Perth TLC last Saturday morning, where they had a breakfast of pancakes, eggs, sausage, juice, milk and coffee, a “Santa Land” set up for kids to do crafts and musical guest Gary Van Slyke. 

Dave Wallin-Eddy was there and was kind enough to share his photos of the event.

Elves Night Out 2009 was a great success.  The weather was warm, the stars were bright and the Christmas spirit was felt by everyone. 

Around the memorial tree people of all ages gathered to sing carols and remember the brave fallen soldiers.   The East Hill Elementary Choir lead the caroling with voices of angels and the Canajoharie High School Brass Band provided the accompaniment.
