American Exchange Bank (AEB) in Henryetta hosted their annual Cookies with Santa event last Thursday afternoon.

Donned in his festive attire, Santa, Marcus Whitworth, performed a variety of holiday tunes for visitors as well as bank staff while posing with area children for photo opportunities.

The Grinch also decided to make a special appearance, but he did not foil the festive event.

Customers and visitors enjoyed delicious cookies during the threehour occasion.

AEB’s Kitty Kat was also on hand for photo opportunities, encouraging parents to sign their children up for new accounts.

The merry and memorable event was enjoyed by all in attendance as the Christmas weekend neared.
