Now is the time for Southwest Florida children to state whether they’ve been naughty or nice.
Through Dec. 1, boys and girls from across Southwest Florida are encouraged to visit Sunshine Ace Hardware to complete note cards and deposit them in specially marked mailboxes inside each retail store. Sunshine Ace Hardware is serving as an official drop-off location this holiday season for letters bound for the North Pole.
“Through our Letters to Santa program, we’ll be sending messages directly to Santa’s home at the North Pole, and he has promised that he’ll respond to every letter,” said Sunshine Ace Hardware President Michael Wynn. “This gives Santa plenty of time to decide who’s been naughty or nice, and pick out the perfect gifts to reward those who have been on their best behavior this year.”
