CLEARLAKE, Calif. — On Dec. 3, the city of Clearlake held the inaugural Breakfast with Santa at the Senior Community Center, located at 3245 Bowers Ave.

This event was a huge success and would not have been made possible without the donations and help from the following businesses and community members:

• Foods Etc.
• Clover Dairy in Petaluma.
• Shearwood Forest.
• Elegant Touch.
• Susie's Sweet Treats.
• Bad Ass BLT's.
• Pasquinelli's in Lower Lake.

• Highlands Senior Service Center.
• Amie Avila.
• Crystal Melanson and Naomi Melanson.
• Melissa Swanson.
• Alan Flora.
• Joyce Overton.
• Jessica Chernoh.
• Sgt. Ryan Peterson.

Finally, the city thanked Lower Lake High School students Madilynn Chernoh, Johnny Martinez, and Adam Viramontes for volunteering their time.

Later that evening the city of Clearlake held the annual Christmas parade. This parade included about 20 entries where Santa and Mrs. Claus made another appearance to meet with the community.

The city of Clearlake Recreation and Events Department will hold a Bunny Brunch on April 9, 2023, at the newly renovated Youth Center.

Additional details will be available soon. All proceeds from these events are used to help fund our newly formed Recreation and Events Division, dedicated to providing programs for our community and fun events throughout the year, including the Movies in the Park, the annual Soapbox Derby, an upcoming Spring Break camp, and Concerts in the Park.
