Each child was given a big bag of wrapped presents to take home and put under the tree, to be opened Christmas morning

Games were played and songs were sung and children were awarded raffle prizes, including cans of popcorn, stuffed beanie babies, candy, porcelain dolls, a scooter and a bicycle.

Eight members of the Erskine Academy Leo club were on hand to help the Lions greet guests, serve food, and hand out gifts.

Twenty-five local children and their families attended the event.
