Courtney O’Rourke, Marketing and Community Engagement Coordinator at Big Brothers Big Sisters of St. Thomas-Elgin (BBBS), announces their upcoming festive event: “Our Breakfast with Santa fundraiser brings families together for a morning of
holiday fun, while supporting BBBS and Neighbourhood Outreach for Kids Elgin (NOK). Families can enjoy a delicious breakfast, meet Santa, take photos, and explore our Holiday Workshop making crafts and keepsakes.” This event for the whole family entails several one- hour seatings throughout the morning, beginning at 8:00 am. This will allow for plenty of time to enjoy breakfast, visit with Santa, and participate in the engaging activities. BBBS is excited to be creating magic in the community this holiday season, as Courtney expresses, “So much goes into preparing for the holidays, and we hope this event gives families a chance to simply enjoy the season and make some special memories. It means
that help children and youth in our community feel connected, supported and valued.” To attend this immersive experience, tickets cost $35.00 for children and $15.00 for adults, which can be purchased through the bbbselgin.org website. “It’s a wonderful way to celebrate the season, while supporting two local organizations that make a difference for children and families in our com- munity,” Courtney charismatically cheers. As Courtney concludes in festive spirit, “This is our first year hosting Breakfast with Santa in partnership with NOK, and we’re excited to bring this new celebration to our community. We hope it becomes a holiday tradition families look forward to for years to come!”
