On Dec. 21, the annual North Branford Senior Holiday Luncheon was hit once again, with Santa arriving in style, aboard a vintage white Cadillac decked out for Christmas.

The party took place at the town's Stanley T. Williams Community Center just before the holidays. Kerry Haynes, Senior Program Coordinator for North Branford Recreation Department & Senior Center, said the two-hour event was "fantastic." She added Santa's suprise visit arrived thanks to his close friend, North Branford resident Anthony Leone, and his dad, John Leone.

In addition, "John Leone and his son Anthony transformed our gym into a gorgeous Winter Wonderland," said Haynes.

Haynes also thanked Bob Mel for providing the entertainment that had everyone dancing and singing along to Christmas carols.
