Boys & Girls: It's Almost Time for 'Breakfast with Santa'

This year's annual holiday event at the East Haven Senior Center will also feature distribution of free Amber Alert ID cards for children.

Christmas Day is almost here. 

And that means Santa is busy making his list and checking it twice — keeping track of who has been naughty and who has been nice.

But the big man is also making time this holiday season to visit with the boys and girls of East Haven.

This year's event will take place on Saturday, Dec. 14 from 9 a.m. until 11:30 a.m. at the Senior Center at 91 Taylor Avenue. 

The breakfast will include: pancakes and sausage along with juice and coffee.

Santa's Sleigh

Santa’s sleigh will arrive at 9:30 a.m., and he will be bringing a gift for every child.

Children will be able to fish for prizes for $1, and there will be a craft and arts table as well.

Admission, Toy Donations

Children 8 years of age and younger will be admitted free. 

Admission for all others will be $5 per person — or an unwrapped toy for the “Toy for Tots” program, which is locally coordinated by the East Haven Fire Department. 

Free Amber Alert IDs

During the event the Rotary will also be offering free ID cards for children through the “Amber Alert-Connecticut” identification program. A second Amber ID card is available for an additional fee. 

The only requirement to obtain the ID card is for the parent/guardian to fill out and sign a brief consent form. 

The information provided does not identify the child by name, address or school and is only useful to law enforcement and the parent/guardian in an emergency.
