Several of the parents recalled attending the branch Christmas party as children, and so the tradition continues. Santa Claus bore a striking resemblance to member Richard Jacob, and his elf bore a striking resemblance to member Nancy Borisz. The elf's helpers, Elizabeth Dungan and Rosemarie Borisz assisted in handing the gifts to Santa. Sparkles the Clown did face and arm painting Mark your calendars now!
