Santa Claus is coming to town one more time before the big night.

The jolly old elf will be in Port Aransas Wednesday, Dec. 19, for the annual Children's Christmas Party.

Port Aransas children ages 12 are invited to see Santa amid the Holiday Forest at Civic Center, 710 W. Ave. A.

The party will be from 5 to 7 p.m. In addition to giving Santa their Christmas wish list, children will be given a gift that will include a toy, a book and goodies.

Admission is free, and children must be accompanied by an adult.
