The
Oliver Wolcott Student Council sponsored the 15th annual Breakfast
with Santa on Saturday, December 20th. Due to the snowstorm
the previous evening, Advisor Mark Eucalitto, Graphics Department
Head, estimated that only 150 of the 250 expected people were
in attendance.
A traditional breakfast of scrambled
eggs, pancakes, sausage, roll and juice was offered by Head
Chef Brian Malota. Master of Ceremonies Mike Petroro, Guidance
counselor at OWTS, introduced Santa Claus to an anxious group
of youngsters. Singer/songwriter Patti Cerruto entertained
with many of the classic holiday songs, including the Twelve
Days of Christmas, sung by the OWTS elves. Head Elf Danielle Stebbins (Health/Phys.
Ed instructor) and CADD Department Head Ray Tanguay helped
Santa with handing out the hundreds of toys to the kids in
attendance. Face painters spent hours putting decorative designs
on the children’s faces. |
