STEVENS POINT — Local youth will get an opportunity to not only meet Santa this holiday season, but pet live reindeer at an event which will support Operation Bootstrap.

Owner Bill Kubisiak of Kuby’s Bar & Grill is teaming up with Operation Bootstrap to put together a festive night that many may soon not forget. On Dec. 14 from 4PM – 7PM, kids will be able to pet live reindeer and meet with Santa himself at Kuby’s Bar & Grill.

Proceeds from the the alcohol-free event will go towards Operation Bootstrap. Operation Bootstrap has bare shelves this year, and Kuby’s is requesting donation of nonperishable food item, cash donation, or unwrapped new gifts for children.

“The biggest thing for us is to help an organisation that helps the community,” said Kubisiak. “…the biggest thing for me is to try and get our customers and the community aware of this and get them out for a good fun night.”

Donations can be dropped off prior to the event during business hours. For more information on the event, please call 715-343-1730.

Kuby’s Bar & Grill is located at 2408 Division St. To visit their Facebook event page, please visit https://www.facebook.com/events/213981312829906/
