Santa’s coming
Published: November 25, 2008 1:00 PMExclusive interview Friday
The Peninsula News Review sat down with Santa for a quick one-on-one interview earlier this week. Though he’s busy preparing for the parade and other festivities in Sidney, and around the world, Santa Claus took the time to answer a few important questions for kids young and old on the Peninsula. See the Friday edition of the Peninsula News Review for our interview and a special surprise.
