Santa visits L'il Keepers

SPARTA — Nothing excites like a visit from Santa.
The children at KEEP’s L’il Keepers were a tiny bit worried that Santa would not find them at the new location on Demarest Road in Sparta but find them he did.
After listening to each child’s special gift requests Santa handed out an early gift of either a stuffed snowman or reindeer, made his mental list and returned to the North Pole to plan for the Big Day.
KEEP’s Holiday party and visit from Santa is always a fun time. This year everyone, which included children, parents/guardians and grandparents, was invited to wear an “ugly sweater” to show off while enjoying a lunch of hot dogs, cheese and crackers, fruit plates, vegetable plates, Grinch popcorn, cupcakes, and cookies.
