Jonathon Valencia shows Santa his Legos he purchased during the Salvation Army Santa Monica Corps 27th Annual Sears Holiday Shopping Spree on Thursday, November 17, 2011.

Eighty-five boys and girls between the ages of 5 and 11 were given $100 to buy clothes and shoes for the winter. Volunteers from The Salvation Army Santa Monica Corps Community Center's Advisory Board, service clubs, businesses, and near-by schools escorted and assist each child as they made their selections and purchases. Santa Claus, though not shopping, visited with the children while the SAMOHI (Santa Monica High School) Madrigal singers fill the air with the sounds of holiday music.
