The venerable Beaches Santa Claus Parade will wend its way along Kingston Road Sunday. As reported by Inside Toronto you should bring along a letter to the great man and some toonies for the 36th Annual Christmas Hamper campaign. We agree. The parade serves as the launch of Community Centre 55’s Share-A-Christmas campaign. Following the parade, everyone is invited to stop by for a special reception at CC55 that will include a barbecue, crafts for the kids and photos with Santa. To the right, these hockey guys are puck-happy with their crested ice-projectiles marking the 65th anniversary of Leaside Memorial Community Arena. Holy penalty-shot say Tuck Yiong, Allan Williams and Stephen Knight. They’ve been playing there for 18 years. Below that, catch the Davisville Public School kids at their Christmas Market Saturday. Looks like fun. Far right, a reminder of the Maurice Cody Winter Fair coming Saturday, December 9 and at the bottom, December events at Leaside United Church and Manor Road United Church.
