Santa and select Paw Patrol characters are heading to Patchogue tonight, Tuesday, Dec. 13 — so bring the kiddies for some great pics.
Also bring an unwrapped toy; that’s the only price of entry.
The toys collected will go toward the Long Island Angels’ Christmas Miracle Toy Drive for Long Island families in need these holidays. The festivities start 6 p.m. at the Elks Club Patchogue, located at 14A Oak Street, just east of North Ocean Avenue.
The night runs to 9 p.m., so you’ll have three hours to get there.
Aside from new and unwrapped toys, the Angels are also looking for gift cards, teen gifts, scooters and bikes for a great giveaway that happens at the Angels’ Patchogue HQ later this month.
This year the Angels are serving over 700 Long Island children, and Tuesday night’s event plays a huge role in toy-gathering efforts.
Parents take the photos with Santa in front of a beautiful backdrop sponsored by Pete Grasso of ReMax Integrity Leaders, with photo ops available with Chase and Skype from the hit show Paw Patrol.
The Patchogue event is also being co-sponsored by county Leg. Dominick Thorne.
