Benwood's Annual Children's Christmas Party 2012

The City of Benwood hosted its annual Children’s Christmas Party on December 16th for the community at St. James & St. John School gymnasium.

Sissy James has served food at the party since it's beginning, she remembers standing  in line as a seven year old at the city building to take part in the city's wonderful tradition.

City Clerk Judy Hunt and her helpers made face painting a big hit for the children.

Children who were signed up for the party received a gift bag, including a toy and other Christmas goodies.

It has been over a 50-year tradition, which originated with the Benwood Volunteer Fire Department Auxiliary members.

Santa Claus handed out door prizes, which included several bicycles to each age group.
