The event is sponsored by the GFWC Clawson Juniors Women's Club. The Juniors are big sponsors of seasonal events in the city including the Fourth of July Kids’ Parade and the Halloween Trick-or-Treat Trail. 

"All of the money that we take in from this and other events, we donate back out again," said Sue Baker, GFWC Clawson Juniors President.

Always a highlight during the holiday season, Lunch with Santa is typically a sold-out event.

Parents are urged to bring along cameras to take photos of their children with Santa. Children can bring along a wish list to present to him if they would like.

Make sure to have your singing voice ready as there will also be caroling during the event.

“It's just fun for the kids and it's our way to offer Santa in Clawson," said Baker. "Come out and have fun!"
