Santa Claus is coming to town!

North Webster-Tippecanoe Township Chamber of Commerce is making sure every child gets to see Santa Claus for free this holiday season with a new format.

It all starts off with fun, games and pizza at the North Webster Community Center, 301 N. Main St., from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. Each child will receive a passport that will be stamped at each of 10 activities inside the gym. When eight stamps are collected, kids can redeem the passport for pizza.

Then at 4 p.m. the action heads to the center of downtown on the Pilcher Shoe Store lawn near the corner of Main and Washington streets. Santa will arrive between 4 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. to visit individually with each child and have a photo taken outside. There will be carolers, a live nativity and a winter land walk.

To top off the event, the North Webster town tree will be lighted at 6:30 p.m. along with the town decorations. Everyone is invited to enjoy this event with their family and friends. Both locations are in downtown North Webster on SR 13.
