WELCOME TO SOUTH- BRIDGE, SANTA!

SOUTHBRIDGE — Clockwise from right, Emily Brill, 5, of Dudley takes a big bite of her pancakes during a Breakfast with Santa Saturday, Dec. 19 at the Quinebaug Lodge of Masons. Chef Ray Vallee of Southbridge cooks up fresh omelets for everyone. Emily Brill, Samuel Brill, 4, of Dudley, Santa (of course), Hannah Langevin, 6, of Dudley, Sophia Dimopoulos, 6, of Dudley and little Alexis Dimopoulos, 2, of Dudley pose for a picture with Santa. Hannah Langevin, 6, of Dudley enjoys her candy cane. Samuel Brill, 4, of Dudley laughs with Santa. Mark Johnson of Fiskdale and District Deputy Grand Master Wayne Anderson smile for the camera as they converse. Shirley Dempsey-Anderson and Shirley and Frank Andress of Charlton enjoy time together during the pancake breakfast.
