BREAKFAST WITH SANTA
"Breakfast with Santa" was a huge success! Santa even brought his ELF this
year!!! The balloon man even had a few new tricks up his sleeve. He was
making balloons to delight all the kids, but forgot to make some of the new ones
he had learned!!! A truckload of toys for tots was collected and delivered to Camp
Pendleton by Loretta Pierce despite the heavy RAIN we had that whole week. A
LOT of kids were extremely happy with all the toys. Marina Hills definitely made
a big impact because the YMCA had lost their toys that were to be donated and
they were very happy to get some from Marina Hills. Thank you to those that
donated the toys. The Marina Hills residents definitely pulled through. Maybe
next year we can shoot for TWO truckloads!!! A special “THANK YOU” " to
Loretta Pierce for hosting and donating all the funds to make this event happen.
Hope to see all of you again next year!
