with a record of 841 visitors!
There were lots of new deputies helping out this year, so

• Deputy Angelina Lubin, Jo Socha, and Sue Harrison for
handing out Santa’s gifts to the children.

out flyers at the entrance gate.
• Deputy Wesley Jefferson for keeping count of all the visitors entering the farm.
• Deputies Jennifer Ettish, Alix Pierre, Eyner Diaz, Nathan
Curry, Tommy Durham, Keith Davis, and Sebastian Pawlaczyk helped out with various duties and kept a general
eye on the farm.
• Pete Peterson for selling farm t-shirts, books and bottled
water.
• Mike Grattan for helping to keep general order on the
farm.
• Candi Busald and Deputy Alvarez Rice for face painting
for the children.
• Carol Peterson for taking donations for photos with Santa.
