Santa’s Mailbox – The Haddam Junior Women’s Club will be delivering children’s letters to Santa! For over 20 years we have set up two mailboxes in town so that the children of Haddam/Higganum can send their letters to Santa and receive a letter back! Mailboxes will be set up at the Nutmeg Pharmacy in Higganum Center and the Haddam Post Office. Please include a self-addressed and stamped envelope so that Santa is able to write a letter back to your child.
