Pets Can Get Photos With Santa, Too

FRANKFORT, IL — The Frankfort Park District wants pet owners to know that it's not just children who can get their pictures taken with Santa Claus: Four-legged fur babies can get time with Old St. Nick, too.

From 1:15 p.m. to 2 p.m. Dec. 11, the Frankfort Park District is inviting pet owners to the Founders Community Center, 140 Oak St. in Frankfort, for its annual Paws with Claus event. No registration is required for this event.

Pictures are $2 per pet family, and the park district is asking those taking photos to bring a pet item to be donated to NAWS in Mokena, Frankfort Park District Recreation Supervisor Cali DeBella said. Pets must also be on a leash.

Paws with Claus follows Santa Photos and Worksop (this one's for people), which will feature crafts, holiday themed games and a chance to visit with Santa. Three time slots are available, and those interested must register by Wednesday.
