Santa Claus had an opportunity to talk one-on-one with many area children about their Christmas lists on Sunday.

Blue Ridge Communications sponsored the sixth annual Breakfast With Santa at Penn’s Peak in Jim Thorpe.According to Julianne Farina, Blue Ridge Communications spokesperson, organizers took around 330 reservations, split between two seatings, for the event.Guests had the choice of coming at 9 or 11 a.m.A portion of the proceeds from the event goes to the Blue Ridge Chapter of Dream Come true.“I think it’s been another great success,” Farina said. “The kids are having a great time. The food is magnificent and it’s a very festive atmosphere.”Santa and Mrs. Claus sat on stage greeting each child who wanted to talk to them and even some who were skeptical.A conversation with Santa was serious business for Alex McKinney, of Bethlehem. McKinney said he told Santa what he wanted for Christmas, but when asked by the media, he changed his tune.“I can’t tell you,” he said. “That’s between me and Santa.” For more on Breakfast With Santa, read the print edition of the Times News.
