YOU BETTER WATCH OUT, YOU BETTER NOT CRY, YOU BETTER NOT POUT, I’M TELLING YOU WHY…SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN. Yes…Santa is coming to bring a new toy for each boy and girl at Alice Terry Elementary and the Denver Indian Health and Family Services Center. Today is the kickoff for the AHS Toys for Tots.
