Dec 1st 2012

The Elkhart Fire Department Local 338 and its members proudly present the 21th annual "Breakfast with Santa" , December 1, 2012 from 8:00 am until 12:00 pm, at the Central Fire Station, 500 East Street. Admission for youngsters 12 years of age and under is a donation of a non-perishable food item, all others are asked to donate $2.00 each. "Breakfast with Santa" has grown in scope every year and we are expecting record attendance again this year. Breakfast with Santa provides area children with a pancake and sausage breakfast, a small gift bag with a toy, candy, and a gift card Also provided are winter gloves and hats for the kids and a picture with Santa. "Breakfast with Santa" serves as a fund raiser for Child And Parent Services (CAPS) and Childrens Hospital/Oncology. We ask that anyone under 12 years of age bring in a non-perishable food item for the Faith Mission, Salvation Army and Church Community Services and their food pantries. The economy has been hard on the citizens of Elkhart County, and parents are looking for some relief to the Christmas holiday pressures. In 2006 we had less than 1000 people come through our doors, in 2008 that increased to over 1,500 in 2009 we had over 2,000 and over 1500 in 2010.
