Santa’s Workshop will celebrate its fifth year at the American Legion. It is not only a fund-raiser for Dove but an event for the entire community.
Mary Hughes of Dove approached the Sullivan City Council requesting a donation to assist in sponsoring the event for 2017. Last year Santa’s Workshop served about 300 children. Hughes stated that this event helps with tourism within Sullivan as children from nearby areas travel to Sullivan to participate in the event.
The council made a motion to donate $500 towards the cost of sponsoring Santa’s Workshop. It was approved.
