Cranberry To Hold Sensory Santa Event

The township is providing kids a safe space in which to meet Santa at their own pace.

CRANBERRY, PA — The township is launching a new effort to provide children with a safe space to meet Santa and his elves at their own pace - and from the comfort of a warm car.

A sensory-friendly Santa drive-thru event is set for Dec. 3 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the municipal center.

Presented by the Cranberry Sunrise Rotary and In Toto Community Resource Center, the event offers a chance to enjoy holiday games, sensory activities and treats in a low-stress, sensory-friendly way. Participants are able to greet Santa in their own way.
