## About

At the South Community Library on Roy Hanna Drive South, Santa's visit falls on Wednesday, December 16, at 10:30 a.m. The city describes the morning simply: music, stories and a visit from Santa, with a free book for every child who comes to see him. Bring a camera, since photos are up to families. It is the third stop in the City of St. Petersburg's Visit with Santa series, which moves between five libraries from December 14 to 17. No registration or age range appears on the city's holiday page, which lists a phone number and an email address for anyone with questions before the visit.
