Letters to Santa
November 10 - December 15, 2025
This holiday season your child can write to Santa and receive a personalized reply from him! Whether it's sharing wishes, asking questions, or telling Santa about their year, kids can feel the magic with a special letter written just for them.
Drop off letters in Santa's mailbox in the Northfield Community Center. Be sure to clearly write your return address so that Santa can write back!
