By Stefanie Swinson [email protected]

DURHAM — Brooke Callahan was excited to meet Santa Claus. The three-year-old Bowmvanille girl wore a nice outfit and had her hair done perfectly for the special occasion. “She already wrote a letter to Santa,” said her mom, Valerie Callahan. “Now all she has to do is tell Santa what she wants for Christmas.” It seemed easy enough, that is until Old Saint Nick asked little Brooke to come and sit beside him. “I don’t want to!” screamed Brooke. She had chick- ened out. And thanks to a new service from the Osha- wa Centre the tears and the hysterics were all caught on video at no charge. From now until Christmas Eve, parents can bring their children to meet Santa and have the whole experience filmed. It won’t cost you a penny. All you have to do is give one of Santa’s balle- rina princesses your e-mail address. Within 72 hours of your Santa visit you’ll receive an e-mail that will direct you to your video and you can send that video to anyone you please. Ms. Callahan was glad to find out about the new program. “I do find it quite expensive just for Santa pictures. Of course we wouldn’t turn it down because it’s Santa pictures but I was shocked Ron Pietroniro/ News Advertiser photo actually that it was free,” she said. If you’re travelling west to meet Santa, the Pickering Town Centre is giving out free loot bags for kids and Girls doing the math parents.
