It was a real pleasure this year for the WCA to host the Wellborn Children's Christmas Party. Families with children of all ages started showing up around 5:30 pm. By 6:10, we had them all seated and singing Christmas carols. Santa Claus arrived by Wellborn fire truck, courtesy of Fire Chief Tom Maynard and assisted by Wayne Brooks. Santa (Jim Bezaire) was very jovial and into the role pleasing 58 children with very nice Christmas stockings. We then proceeded to pull tickets and awarded each and every child with a nice gift. Tickets were then drawn and two lucky children (a boy and a girl) each won a 26" 15-speed bicycle.
The annual raffle ticket winners were drawn as a finale. Robert Noble won the $300 cash, Jim & Pat Bezaire won the $200, and Oleta Rehders won $100. All children and parents, workers and Santa, enjoyed tons of delicious cookies, punch and coffee supplied by the WCA. We were all very pleased as this was a very good turnout of Wellborn families who seemed to have a good time. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all from your Wellborn Community Association.
