What's up with the elves this week?
At area malls, they're prepping Santa for photos with pets.
Santa Paws photo sessions are 6-9 p.m. today, Nov. 20, at Walnut Square Mall in Dalton, Ga.; and 6-9 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 25, at Chattanooga's Northgate Mall and Hamilton Place. Tuesday will be the final night for Santa Paws at the two Chattanooga malls. Walnut Square will have one more Fido and Fifi photo-op on Thursday, Dec. 4. All pets must be on a leash or in a carrier to enter the malls. At Hamilton Place, pets should be brought in through the Food Court entrance.
Also at Hamilton Place is Santa Cares, a chance for children with special needs to have their photos made without music and other distractions. These photo sessions are available by appointment only, through Wednesday, Nov. 26. Call 423-855-5282 or email Susan_Hoff@cblproperties.com.
