Santa seen Saturday: photos are evidence

The La Conner Rotary’s Santa Breakfast was a resounding success. By careful count, 194 people came for pancakes, eggs and sausage. Santa’s lap was occupied for almost three hours. More kids than ever, about 50, sat, plus three or four intergenerational families took photos with Santa. And about 15 dogs came for Santa photos, a new addition this year. Santa enjoyed humans and canines alike.

“Huge kudos to the many club members who had a role in planning, setting up, day-of work and clean-up – and to Santa, of course!” club president Alice Collingwood said. “We also had help from 10 La Conner High School students who took and printed photos, served meals and helped clean up. Everyone contributed to a great event, and we so appreciate the people who came to it.”
