Port Jefferson Station-Terryville Chamber hosts drive-thru Santa
To help maintain social distancing, but still with the holiday spirit, the Port Jefferson Station/Terryville Chamber of Commerce hosted their second drive-thru Santa visit and letter drop off on Saturday, Dec. 4.
President Jennifer Dzvonar said that for decades, the chamber has hosted Santa at the Port Jefferson Station Train Car. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in 2020 they opted for a drive-thru visit, instead.
During the free event, kids were able to unroll their car windows, say hello to the man in red — who waited in his sleigh— and then pull their cars to a mailbox where they drooped letters to the North Pole.
“Last year everyone raved about the drive-thru, and everyone seems to enjoy it,” Dzvonar said.
Raffle tickets were also sold to help the chamber’s flag fund.
