The children and families served by the Children’s Beach House in Lewes celebrated the holiday season with a special party Dec. 11. More than 130 guests enjoyed holiday-themed crafts like ornament making, cookie decorating and picture frame decorating. Games played were antler ring toss, dreidel spinning and pin the tail on Rudolph. A highlight of the party was photos with Santa. Chef Paula Baker prepared a special holiday buffet for families. Gifts were given to the children by G. Fedale Roofing & Siding.
