Santa arrives in West Lafayette

| December 7, 2015

DSC_0049WEST LAFAYETTE – The village of West Lafayette did it up right on Saturday, Dec. 5 with a pancake breakfast held by the West Lafayette Lions Club, a craft show was held at the First Baptist Church of West Lafayette with lots to see and do, including great sandwiches and more by the Janusian Club. You could also join the wonderful staff at the West Lafayette Public Library for some delicious cookies, hot chocolate and crafts. The parade kicked off at 1 p.m. from the Ridgewood Middle School with sirens and lights blaring, Mayor Jack Patterson participating in his final parade as Mayor of West Lafayette, the Ridgewood Marching Generals, area queens and princesses, firetrucks and of course, Santa! The 30 minute parade wound its way up Russell Avenue, turned on to State Route 93 and then County Road 9 before concluding at the church.

About the Author ()

I live with my beautiful wife Nancy on a small farm just outside Coshocton. We have been married for thirty two years and have two grown children, Jessica and Jacob. Jessica is married to Aaron Mencer and they are employed with Coshocton City Schools. Jacob is a sophomore at Kent State University. I graduated from River View High School, have a Bachelor’s Degree from North Carolina Wesleyan University and am actively involved with the Roscoe United Methodist Church, serve on several local committees and am a member of the Coshocton Kiwanis Club, having served as Past-President. I love reading, especially military thrillers, the Civil War and history in general. My goal is to write a novel. My wife and I are also AdvoCare distributors and encourage anyone wanting to lose weight, gain energy and better health to explore AdvoCare at our website; www.fortunes4advocare.com. I love the media field, innovative technology and have worked in newspapers for over 30 years – in fact, my first job was delivering newspapers. The Beacon is a dream made possible by the support of this community and a great team. I hope to continue serving Coshocton County for many years.
