Lunch with Santa

Fairview Park Senior Center
20769 Lorain Road (behind city hall)

Join us for Lunch with Santa! Enjoy a serving of pizza, fruit cocktail, carrot sticks, cucumber slices, lemonade, and a mini cupcake. Children will make a holiday craft. Santa will be making a special appearance, so be sure to BRING YOUR CAMERA to capture this memorable photo opportunity. 

While we are sad that we cannot host the event at Bain Park Cabin as we usually do, owing to the ongoing renovations there, we look forward to making a memorable and festive experience at the senior center, which is located behind city hall. 

Lunch with Santa is by reservation only, and seating is on a first come, first served basis. Payment must accompany your reservation. Reservation deadline is November 29.

There are two seatings, 11 am and 12:30 pm. Please follow the link for the appropriate seating to order your tickets. You will have the option of paying by card, various online payment options, or check.  

We are using a company called Zeffy for online payments, a service provider for nonprofits that does not charge us fees for accepting your payments or donations or for the other services they provide — this is a big savings for a small club like ours. The tradeoff is that they will ask you to leave a small “tip” to help keep them in business. This is entirely optional; if you don’t care to leave the tip, please change the amount to zero before you proceed with payment.

If you would rather mail your payment, please download the order form:
