Living in Dryden

Varna holiday party

After his visit to Dryden a few weeks ago, Santa came to the Varna Community Center for a holiday party Friday.

Santa arrived at the center in style, towed by a tractor in a decorated cart. John Tottey put on a red nose for his role as chauffeur.

Santa and his elves sat for pictures with children and wandered the party ringing bells and taking requests for toys.

Children got to take on a piñata, eventually releasing its candy.

The piñata yields its loot.

There was also a gingerbread village, which looked lovely at the start, and rather deflated by the end of the party.

A proud gingerbread village.
