Santa Claus speaks to children at the Vestavia Hills Library in the Forest. St. Nick will return this Christmas season.
While it will look different than in years past, Santa Claus is still planning to visit the Vestavia Hills Library in the Forest this holiday season.
Families can call and reserve their time with Santa for Dec. 15 from 4-6 p.m. A photographer will be there to take photos, though families are free to take their own photos. Each family will also receive a family pack of cookies and cocoa to share. Call 205-978-0158 to reserve your time.
