North Pole Calling

Pelham Parks and Recreation is happy to once again offer the free North Pole Calling program for children in preschool through grades 2 or 3.  The grades are simply a guideline; any child who would appreciate a call can be included if the parent completes a form.  One form per child please.  On Sunday, December 14, 2008 from 5-7 pm, Santa, Mrs. Claus and their North Pole helpers will make calls to local children about their Christmas wishes.  You must be home to receive the call as that is the only time they will be made.  Deadline for complete form is Dec. 12th.  This program is great fun for a seasonal activity appreciated by all involved.  Helpers are needed!  Kindly email or call us at (603) 635-2721 if you can assist.  Thank you!
