Intercepted Santa Letters!

Date:

A little elf at the Garretson Elementary School was able to sneak away some "Dear Santa" letters from Mrs. Bass' second grade classroom earlier this week before they were brought to the North Pole, and showed them to us here at the Gazette. We hope you enjoy the requests and thoughts of our local students!

Dear Santa,

For Christmas please can you get homeless people blankets and food. Can I have a walkie talkie and for my teacher to be happy. A doll house and a Barbie car and a new tablet. Love, Jenna

Dear Santa, Do you need more hot coco mix and marshmallows and do your Elves need more snow pants for Christmas? I would like for Christmas is snow! Love, Zoey 

Dear Santa, I hope my family is not sick and I want for the poor to get good stuff for them. I want the nursing home to feel good. Have a Jolly Christmas. Love, Luke Sittig
