St. John's Santa Lunch Party.
On Saturday, December 11, 2004 St. John's is sponsoring their fourth Ho! Ho! Ho! Santa Lunch Party from 11:30 am to 1 pm at St. Margaret's Gym on Water Lane in Tappahannock followed by the Community Christmas Parade at 2:00. This year's Lunch Party has a theme of "Here Comes Santa Claus Right Down Water Lane" and for $10 per child, children 10 and under, accompanied by an adult, may visit with Santa and have a light lunch and juice. Entertainment will be provided by the Urbanna Baptist Stringless Puppets, Essex County Library, Buzzie the Clown, and a sing-along with St. Margaret's Ensemble.
Activities will include face painting, decorating a cookie, writing a letter to Santa and other crafts. Selected art works from local kindergarten and first grade children will be on display. Small gifts for Christmas may be purchased from The Bead Lady, Discovery Toys and Books for Children. Tickets are available only at the door on the day of the event. For further information, you may call (804) 443-1003.
