THE socialSCENE NATCHEZ, MS
Annual Santa Claus Christmas Eve Party
Each year on December 24 during the Christmas Eve Santa Claus Parade, Andrea and Ray Bradford, along with friends, host a gathering at their home, one of the Santa stops along the parade route, in Natchez, Mississippi. Friends and family are invited to attend in hopes that Santa will share his stash of quarters for the children. Always in the afternoon, this last stop finds Santa and his helpers ready to conclude the parade of merry-making and prepare for the private party Santa Claus hosts for members of the Santa Clause Committee and friends.
