Santa’s visit to Bonners Ferry 2017 was a
complete success with roughly 160 children in
attendance!
The Bonners Ferry Chamber alone could not have
planned this event alone and they want to
provide several community members an outstanding
thank you for all of their help!
First and foremost, thank you Santa Claus for
your visit to our community and for officially
plugging in the town's holiday lights!
Thank you Bonners Ferry Fire Department for
ensuring Santa’s safe and timely arrival. Thank
you Mandy Bateman for providing photos of the
event and thank you Sharlene Delaney and David
Brinkman for passing out candy canes and hot
chocolate to the children.
Thank you to Bonners Ferry Safeway, who provided
the hot chocolate mix, to Bonners Ferry Super 1,
who provided the candy canes, and to Jill
Nystrom of The Rusty Moose for mixing the hot
chocolate.
An extra special thank you to Barbara LePoidevin
and all of her elves for making the Georgia Mae
Plaza beautiful, and another great big thank you
to all the parents who bundled up the kids and
came down to the Georgia Mae Plaza to bid Santa
welcome and ring in a happy and wonderful
holiday season!

Editor's note: My apologies for the grainy,
fuzzy photos -- I'm not sure if it's because it
was dusk, because I'm just a click and hope
photographer or because, fumble fingers that I
am, I dropped my camera onto the concrete.
Twice. |
