BESSEMER — Santa, Mrs. Claus, and several of their elves made an appearance at the Bessemer VFW Post 3673 on Saturday afternoon to hand out gifts to children for the VFW’s second annual Santa drive-thru event.

“It went well,” said Donna Frello, post commander. “We distributed 150 gift bags.”

Parents drove through the VFW parking lot and were given a gift bag for each child in the car. The gift bags contained a craft kit, cookies, candy, a Christmas plush toy and other holiday goodies.
