Letters to Santa
Get ready to spread some holiday cheer!
​
It's time to mail your wish list to the North Pole! Stop by the Celina Public Library starting December 1st to pick up your free letter writing materials, or bring your own festive stationery. Write a letter to Santa, tell him all about your good deeds this year, and you'll receive a special, personalized reply straight from the big man in red! Don't miss this magical opportunity to share your Christmas wishes!
​
Santa's official Mail Box will be located inside the Library from December 1st through the 14th. If your little one would like to receive a return letter from Santa, those special replies will be available for pick-up at the Library Front Desk from December 15th through the 23rd during normal operating hours.
