Santa Claus comes to Mister Ed’s Elephant Museum &amp; Candy Emporium on Sunday, November 29, during a free “Santa Party” from noon-3 p.m.

During the outdoor event, children can meet Santa, standing next to him to chat about their Christmas list rather than sitting on his lap. Santa will be in front of a photo backdrop, so families are encouraged to bring their own cameras. Children can also decorate a wooden ornament for their tree. 

Register children for one of three timeslots: noon-1 p.m.; 1-2 p.m.; and 2-3 p.m. Registration is available at Eventbrite.com by searching “Mister Ed’s Santa Party.” 

Due to the ongoing pandemic, physical distancing will be enforced, and masks are required. No one may enter the event area without a mask.

“We’re pleased once again to help families usher in the holiday season,” said Nicole Bucher, owner of Mister Ed’s. “We love bringing families together for a free holiday activity, while at the same time helping those in need by collecting food donations. This event is what the holiday season is all about, and something we all need right now.”

Non-perishable food donations are being collected for the Adams County Food Pantry. Food items must be in packaging free of defects and may not be expired. For each item donated, receive a one dollar “Santa Buck” certificate to spend at Mister Ed’s, up to five per family. 

Since 2017, Mister Ed’s has given out more than $1,300 in Santa Bucks and donated in excess of 1,500 food items thanks to attendees. 

“We’re blown away by the response we’ve received from attendees since we started collecting food donations,” said Bucher. “We love the lessons of giving – not just getting – and community that this event sends to the children who participate.” 

Mister Ed&#x27;s is located 12 miles west of Gettysburg and 12 miles east of Chambersburg along the historic Lincoln Highway (Route 30) at 6019 Chambersburg Road, Orrtanna. For more information, visit mistereds.com or call 717-352-3792.
