As Christmas approaches, the Northern store in Sanikiluaq, NU is helping the community get into the holiday spirit.
“It seems we have started something here,” said Janet Robinson, store manager. Elementary school children have begun to bring envelopes containing letters for Santa into the store. In return for receiving letters, Northern is treating the young writers to hot chocolate and candy canes.
Robinson explains that doing this for the kids “creates a lot of excitement in the store, and fills it with laughter of children excited for the Christmas season.”
