Santa Returns To Whittier Parks

 

Los Angeles County Supervisor Don Knabe will join Mr. and Mrs. Claus and other special passengers on Monday, December 17 when they board the “Here Comes Santa” Holiday Train – an annual event that brings presents and fun in the snow to three locations in the Whittier area.

“Every year this is a great occasion for families to come down and enjoy the spirit of the Holidays,” said Supervisor Knabe. “The kids have a great time visiting with Santa and playing in thousands of pounds of real snow.”

The Holiday Train pulls into its first stop on December 17 at Amigo Park at 3:30 p.m., and then makes a stop at Parnell Park at 5 p.m.; finally it’s off to Adventure Park at 6:30 p.m. At each stop children will receive presents, get a chance to take pictures with Santa and Mrs. Claus play in real snow. Over 3,000 children, parents and community members are expected to attend throughout the night.
