FREEHOLD TOWNSHIP – The Monmouth County 4-H Horse Project will host the second annual Breakfast with Santa fundraiser on Dec. 7 (snow date Dec. 8) from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Agricultural Building, 4000 Kozloski Road, Freehold Township.

“The holiday season can be hectic time of year, but enjoying a breakfast with Santa is a wonderful way to spend quality time with the family,” said Monmouth County Freeholder Lillian G. Burry, liaison to Monmouth County 4-H.  “All of the profits from the breakfast will be donated to the Monmouth County 4-H Horse Project for education programs and horse shows.”

Guests are invited to eat a pancake breakfast, meet Santa and his animal friends, sing carols and participate in several make-and-take crafts. Admission is $10 for adults and $5 for children, age 9 and under, cash or check only. Space is limited, according to a press release from the county.

Members of the Premier Theatre Company, who will sing carols from their upcoming production of “Scrooge,” will join the Monmouth County 4-H Horse Project for this event.

The Premier Theatre Company is a nonprofit theater and educational organization that works to bring the gift of performing arts to residents of the tri-state area, according to the press release.

The 4-H Youth Development Program is part of Rutgers New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station-Cooperative Extension; 4-H educational programs are offered to all youth, grades K-13, on an age-appropriate basis.
