The fun begins began with Breakfast with Santa at the Vergennes United Methodist Church, across from the Opera House, 9:00-11:30am. In the afternoon from 1:00-3:00pm, Santa and Mrs. Claus welcomed the children at 48 Green Street, One Credit Union, sponsors for the day-long event. CLICK HERE to see what the day entailed.
