A wise Santa Claus (Woodburn resident Don Call) patiently waits to hear what gifts a pair of youngsters would like to have under their tree this Christmas. Santa has been meeting with kids, teens and even a few adults while serving at the Woodburn Company Stores’ Santa House. Woodburn Company Stores arranges for Santa to be at the mall seven days a week, from noon until 7 p.m., starting on the day of the annual tree lighting ceremony — Nov. 18 this year — through Christmas Eve.
WOODBURN — When he was serving in the 82nd Airborne in the late 1950s, Woodburn’s Don Call probably never imagined he would end up serving so many years as Santa Claus.
