Santa is coming to town!

Santa will be coming to BCAT on Friday, December 12, from 6pm until 7:30pm.  Children are welcome to come to the BCAT studio (located in the back of Burlington High School near the entrance to Bay Path University) during that time for holiday treats and the opportunity to meet Santa. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be chatting with children to review their lists while parents (or other responsible adults) are welcome to take as many photos as they'd like.

The program will be broadcast live on BCAT (Comcast Channel 9, RCN Channel 3, or Verizon Channel 39) and repeated periodically throughout the holiday season.  If children aren't able or if they choose not to visit the studio, they can call in live to talk to Santa and tell them their Christmas wishes.

This is a free event and open to everyone, even non-Burlington residents.  However, non-Burlington residents aren't able to view BCAT on their televisions at home.

Thanks and happy holidays.
