Your Kids Can Have Breakfast with Santa in Owensboro

The Owensboro Convention Center has announced plans for its 4th Annual Breakfast with Santa event and it's a month away in downtown Owensboro.

Last year, I was invited to come by and spend time with Santa, Mrs. Claus and my friends at the Owensboro Convention Center and German American Bank. Last year, due to COVID-19, Breakfast with Santa was a drive-thru event. It was REALLY windy and cold (in fact, at one point I think we had to catch Santa's tent and keep it from flying across the front lawn like his reindeer), but it was a heckuva lot of fun.

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN- AGAIN!

And there's good news for all your little elves. Jolly Old Saint Nicholas is coming back to town to host a very merry breakfast again and, this year, we're going back inside the Owensboro Convention Center. So, you'll be able to park your cars, come inside and get ready to eat.

So much for the traditional peppermint candy canes at Christmas time. Well, actually, those are still around. But, if you're not a fan of peppermint, there are plenty of new candy cane flavors to keep you occupied.

SEE INSIDE: The House and Filming Location from 'A Christmas Story'

The classic Christmas film is set in fictional Hohman, Indiana (which doubled for Hammond) but was filmed in Cleveland. The tour was a blast. Hey, I love visiting movie sets.
