Santa brings early holiday joy to northern communities
Giving Rudolf and the other reindeer a rest before their big night, Santa Claus climbed aboard a plane to bring some early holiday joy to a number of northern communities.
Armed with jingle bells and a bag packed with gifts, St. Nick elicited nothing but smiles from youth in Fond du Lac, Black Lake, Stony Rapids, and Wollaston Lake over the past two days.
For Santa, the trip is all about delivering some smiles and holiday cheer to the children.
“It is the right thing to do,” Mr. Claus said. “The magic and the spirit of Christmas and making everybody feel like they are part of humanity. That is what Christmas is. You all get that feeling at Christmas time, it is a special feeling, I think.”
