4th Annual Breakfast with Santa Brings Holiday Cheer to Christian County

The Christian County Elks Lodge was filled with warmth, laughter, and holiday spirit during our 4th Annual Breakfast with Santa, a cherished tradition that continues to grow each year. As part of the Elks’ commitment to giving back to the community and supporting children, the Lodge proudly served over 120 complimentary pancake and sausage breakfasts, complete with juice, coffee, and milk, to families throughout Christian County.

Santa Claus himself made a grand appearance, delighting children and adults alike as he posed for photos with every guest. He was assisted by one of his trusted Elf, who helped ensure the day ran smoothly and every smile was captured.

Adding to the festive atmosphere, the Springfield Metro Chorus filled the Lodge with beautiful Christmas carols throughout the day, creating the perfect soundtrack as guests enjoyed the celebration and shopped for last-minute gifts from our holiday vendors.

The turnout was nothing short of fantastic. The parking lot was full, and the Lodge was buzzing with laughter, singing, and genuine good cheer—truly reflecting the spirit of the season and the heart of Elkdom.

A heartfelt thank you to all our guests, to Santa and his Elf, and especially to the many Elks who volunteered their time and talents. From cooking and serving to decorating the Lodge—which looked better than ever before—your dedication made this event an unforgettable success. Events like Breakfast with Santa remind us why the Elks’ mission of community and caring continues to shine so brightly during the holidays.
