Santa Arrives at Landmark Mall

Mondays are "pet nights" — bring your cat or dog to the mall to visit with Santa.

It's a long way from the North Pole, but Santa Claus is making his annual trek down to Landmark Mall, at 5801 Duke St., again this year, when he will hear what local children hope to see under the tree.

Santa arrived at Landmark Mall Friday. He  will be at his station at the mall from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 6 p.m. on Sundays.

On Christmas Eve, Santa will visit with children from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
