Santa’s Special Mailbox is Leaving Soon!

Santa’s official North Pole Mailbox will be returning to the North Pole on Sunday night, December 14th!  You’ll find it along the path to the Recreation office—in the Library Circle—making it super easy for all Briarcliff Manor resident’s kiddos to drop off their letters. 

But don’t wait too long…get those letters in before Sunday night as the elves will whisk the mailbox back to the North Pole on December 14th, so Santa and his crew have plenty of time to write personal responses!

Prefer email?  Santa’s checking his inbox too until December 14th at Santa@briarcliffmanor.gov
