ORCHARD PARK — Santa Land will return to Chestnut Ridge from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. this Saturday and Sunday — complete with hayrides, arts & crafts, face painting, marshmallow roasting, woodcutting and more.
Erie County Parks Commissioner Daniel J. Rizzo said, “We welcome parents to bring their families out to enjoy all that Santa Land has to offer, but also to join in the spirit of giving by bringing a new, unwrapped toy for those less-fortunate children within our community.”
Orchard Park Recreation Director Ed Leak added, “The Orchard Park Recreation Department is once again honored to collaborate with Erie County by offering Santa Land as one of the most popular special events held each year. The ability to run the event is directly related to the support of our corporate sponsors year after year. Showcasing Chestnut Ridge Park as the jewel of the county park system is a benefit for all our residents.”
The casino’s concession stand will also be open during the event offering food and drink for sale, and Santa Land is a designated 2016 Toys for Tots drop-off site.
