Santa made a special stop at the Lake Francis Community Centre for their annual Christmas lunch, where families gathered to celebrate the season.
Santa arrived to meet with everyone in attendance, posing for photos and sharing holiday greetings. The hall was entertained by music and singing from Arlene and Colleen along with their talented family, adding to the festive atmosphere.
Children enjoyed a large variety of crafts and colouring activities, with items to take home and hang on their Christmas trees.
Organizers said the event was a great success, adding they believe the holiday gathering has been a community tradition for close to 70 years.
Emmy and Jolene of Lake Francis enjoyed a festive encounter with a friendly reindeer, while Rylan of St. Laurent shared a cheerful moment with Santa during the Breakfast with Santa event in Lake Francis on Sunday, Dec. 7. Families gathered for holiday fun, photos and Christmas spirit throughout the morning
