Did you catch him at the Prince of Peace School last weekend? Maybe you got his ear while he rode by boat to the Long Island Maritime Museum's Jingle Bell Walk?
Hopefully, even if you missed those events, you were able to sit on Santa's lap, tell him your wishlist and enjoy some treats as hosted Cookies with Santa recently.
There were plenty of cookies as well as face time with the bearded man, as the line wasn't as long as year's past and definitely beat out going to the mall. And don't forget about the free Crickets popcorn!

So we decided to switch it to the mornings from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and it has become more manageable for the staff and those dining here.
