SANTA SURPRISES THE EUFAULA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND DAY CARE CENTERS
What a surprise awaited the students at Eufaula Elementary School and four local day care centers! Who should come visiting but Santa Claus! At the school, Principal Salcedo led the way down the halls of the school so Santa could ask each child, “What would you like for Christmas?” The children eagerly shared their Christmas wishes and dreams with Santa.
Before visiting the school, Santa was whisked away to five local daycare centers by their helpers from Narconon Arrowhead who had arranged the outing: DannaSue Pruett and Shelly Paden. The role of Santa was capably played by Max Jones, all Narconon Arrowhead staff members. The daycare centers visited by Santa and crew were the Busy Bee Learning Center in Eufaula, the Creek Nation Development Center in Eufaula, the Creek Nation Head Start in Eufaula, Ms. Nancy’s Helping Hands in Longtown and Ms. Jennifer’s Daycare in Longtown.
In all, Santa heard the Christmas wishes of more than 420 children. As Santa left each group he asked, “Now will you children do me a favor? I need you to leave me milk and cookies on Christmas Eve. Oh, and a few carrots too. If you don’t leave me any carrots, Rudolph will eat all my cookies! Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas!”
