Face painting is just one of the many things planned for the Ladner Business Association’s annual Breakfast with Santa.

The Christmas festivities continue Saturday, Dec. 7 with the Ladner Business Association's annual Breakfast with Santa.

A Ladner holiday tradition for more than 30 years, the event usually draws around 600 people to the Ladner Community Centre for pancakes and some festive fun.

Volunteers will prepare the pancakes while VIPs from the community serve breakfast. You can expect to possibly see Mayor Lois Jackson and members of Delta council, MP Kerry-Lynne Findlay and MLA Vicki Huntington serving up flapjacks.

During breakfast, Santa will arrive in style in a police cruiser with lights flashing and sirens blaring. He and Mrs. Claus will then take to the stage to pose for photos.

Shrine clowns and face painters, and a singer/storyteller will provide entertainment for the kids while they wait for their visit and photo with Santa. As well, the Delta Museum and Archives will be on hand with old fashioned ornament crafts.

Breakfast costs $4 for pancakes and $5 for pancakes with ham. Breakfast also includes a choice of juice or coffee.

The event runs from 8 to 11 a.m.
