Mrs. Lawrence’s 2nd grade class delivered their letters to Santa.

RPE First Grade delivered their letters to Santa’s  mailbox.

The Atchison County Mail in Rock Port, the Avalanche in Tarkio, and the Forum in Fairfax have special mailboxes for local children to drop off their letters to Jolly Old Saint Nicholas. Stop by one of the three offices to deliver your letter and it will be published in the Atchison County Mail newspaper before being sent on to the North Pole.
