The City of Fairlawn’s Beggars Night
Sunday, October 31, 2010
5:00 pm – 7:00 pm
This year, we have set aside Sunday, October 31 from 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm as the time for children to go door-to-door and “trick-or-treat” through the neighborhoods of Fairlawn. Homes wishing to participate should turn on their front porch light.
Breakfast with Santa
Saturday, December 18, 2010
10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Cost: $8.00 per child ages 2-8
Cost: $8.50 per accompanying guest
Location: Fairlawn Kiwanis Community Center (3486 S. Smith Road)
Parents and children will eat a breakfast buffet of scrambled eggs, pancakes, bacon, hash browns, fruit, juice and coffee as we wait for Santa to arrive here in Fairlawn!
Santa, Mrs. Claus and the elves will hand out gifts to all registered children (wrapped gifts are provided by each child’s parent and must be dropped off in advance with the child’s first and last name clearly written on the package wrapping). Gifts are to be dropped off at Fairlawn City Hall (3487 S. Smith Road) between the hours of 9:00 am and 4:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday, December 13-16. Please be sure all gifts are priced around $15 in order to keep all children happy. As in the past, please do not bring your gifts to the party as Santa is unable to hide them and the children will see his elves doing their secret tasks. Gifts brought to the party will be left with the staff at the podium and handed out at the end of the party. Please feel free to bring your camera to take pictures.
Pre-registration is required for this event by December 3. Registration Form
You can mail your form to 3487 S Smith Road or drop it off at City Hall. We will mail or e-mail you a receipt and only call if there is a problem with your registration.
