    Santa, it's been soooo long! Children lined up at the skate center to see Santa on Saturday morning

It's a tradition to visit with Santa over some pancakes, at least in Vinton it is.  

The skate center was filled with little children waiting for their turn on Santa's knee after filling their tummy with pancakes and sausage. There weren't cookies and milk for Santa, but he was too busy greeting the children and handing out goodies to each of them after a round on his knee.  

The event is sponsored by Vinton Parks and Recreation each Christmas season.
