Breakfast With Santa: Ovation Choir

Last Saturday, Dec. 2, Morgan High School's Ovation Choir held a fundraiser in the MHS commons from 8-10 a.m. The money raised will go towards the choir trip to San Francisco at the end of the school year. The students were dressed as elves and served a breakfast of pancakes, sausage, eggs, peaches, and hot chocolate to donors. 

While their friends and family ate, the Choir performed a skit and entertained the audience with popular Christmas songs such as “Frosty The Snowman,” “Jingle Bells,” “Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer,” “Welcome Christmas, Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town,” “Here Comes Santa Claus,” “Up on the Housetop,” and “We Wish You a Merry Christmas.” The students sang in character and interacted with the crowd. A number of the songs were done as sing-alongs and volunteers from the audience had the chance to participate in the fun. Meanwhile, there was an activity table for the younger viewers with crossword puzzles, word searches, and coloring pages. 

Towards the end of the presentation, Santa Claus arrived and gave all of the children a candy cane. Families were offered the opportunity to take a picture with Saint Nick in front of a festive backdrop with a Christmas tree decorated with music note ornaments. 

Events come and go, but the snowfall outside the windows made it quite a magical morning; one that students and visitors alike will be sure to remember. λ
