With Christmas coming soon, it’s time to cross those names off your shopping list.

The Casey Service Club and the Casey Historical Society are sponsoring an opportunity to utilize the man with all the toys himself. The Shop With Santa event is scheduled for Saturday, December 9th at the Casey Visitor Center from 11am-4pm.

Several of “Santa’s Shops” will fill the visitor center with local gifts and decor. Hot dogs, chili, potato soup, and drinks will be provided for a free-will donation. All proceeds from the free-will donations will go towards improving Casey City Park. Santa will also be in attendance from 2-4pm. Participants will have an opportunity to drop off non-perishable food items for the Adair-Casey Food Pantry. Patrons are also encouraged to check out Casey United Methodist Church’s Children’s Mall from 9am-1pm. Most items are $.50 and snacks and gift wrapping are free.
