Once again the Allen Chamber of Commerce has made arrangements with Santa Claus to make an early trip down from the North Pole to visit with area children and receive their Christmas wish lists.

The Jolly Ole Man will arrive, via firetruck, in downtown Allen this Saturday, December 12 ^th , at 2:00 p.m. Weather permitting, he will set up in front of the Memory Lane Park downtown and visit with children of all ages. In case of inclement weather he will move into the Allen Masonic Lodge.

He’s expecting to see a large crowd so please don’t disappoint Santa!

Santa’s visit will be followed by the “Shop at Home” drawings for six $100 bills. This will take place, as always, in front of the Allen Food Center at 3:00 p.m. The Chamber limits the winners to one per household and you must be present to win.
