It is always a great time to have pictures taken with the "big guy."
You may have heard of the boy who kicked Santa in the shin saying, "That's for last year!"

Be good and stay tuned for when Santa will arrive at the Brainerd VFW in December 2023.
Are you the real Santa?
Saturday, December 10, 2022: The Brainerd VFW held its annual Twelve and Under Children's Christmas Party. This was a free event for everyone. There was pizza, gifts given to kids, singing and fun. Twas the Night Before Christmas was read by Post Chaplain Mark Persons. Auxiliary President Sue Sterling wrote children's names in calligraphy. Donny Shogren played organ, Mike Williams played harmonica, and Sue Sterling sang. Several kids sang into a microphone too. Ten large pizzas were served along with cookies and soft drinks.
There was a heavy snowstorm at the North Pole. Rudolph, with his nose so bright, guided Santa's sleigh to the Brainerd VFW, arriving at 12:30 pm.
