This is going to be a busy weekend for Santa and Mrs. Claus. The royal couple of Christmas will be special guests at Friday evening’s annual Christmas parade in downtown Sebring. Then they will be at Santa In The Park to greet children in Stuart Park from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday before again serving as special parade guests for Lake Placid’s holiday parade that evening at 7 p.m.

The toy workshop at the North Pole must be a hectic place this time of year, but still Santa and his wife take time to visit with children to hear Christmas wish lists; they ride in Christmas parades to wave to their many fans; and still find time to keep tabs on all the buzz at the North Pole.
