If your kids have been working on their letters to Santa this year, the Barrington Park District is stepping in as Santa’s little (local) helper.  The Park District has set up a special mailbox for letters heading to the North Pole.

All you have to do is send or drop off your child’s letter, with a self-addressed & stamped envelope, by Friday, December 7th. Little park district elves will be sure those letters make it to Santa with enough time for him to write back.  If you get the letters in by the December 7th deadline, your child will receive a reply from Santa a few days before Christmas!

Address All Letters To:

The North Pole
c/o Barrington Park District
235 Lions Drive
Barrington, IL 60010

And for a little inspiration, we got our hands on some of the Santa letters received by the Barrington Park District last year.  Take a look and see how these year-old wish lists compare to the gifts your kids are dreaming about today ;)…
