Breakfast with Santa is coming to Arbutus on Saturday, November 28, 2026, from 8 to 11 a.m. at the Dewey Lowman American Legion Post 109 on Old Sulphur Spring Road. Tickets are 10 dollars, children under 3 eat free with a paying adult, and it is a cash only event with food, games and pictures with Santa.

What is Breakfast With Santa at Post 109?

The friends of Troop 109 are hosting this family breakfast at the Post the Saturday after Thanksgiving, according to the Post 109 November and December 2026 Cyclops newsletter. The newsletter says all are welcome, which makes it a sweet way to kick off the holiday season with your kids or grandkids.

Where is American Legion Post 109?

Post 109 sits on Old Sulphur Spring Road in the Arbutus and Halethorpe area. The Post 109 website says the Post has welcomed veterans from every branch of the Armed Forces since its charter in 1933. It also asks neighbors in Halethorpe and Arbutus to consider supporting the Post as a booster or sponsor, and says all money raised goes back to the community through scholarships, help for local veterans and their families, and community programs.

How is Post 109 marking Veterans Day in Arbutus?

Veterans Day is Wednesday, November 11, and the Post's newsletter describes a day full of hometown tradition:

• The day starts with raising the flags along the Post driveway.
• Members and guests gather at the flag pole in the heart of Arbutus to hear from the Post family and guests from the community.
• The Post serves a free Veterans Day dinner for veterans, their spouses or significant others, and their children under 18. Sign up sheets are posted at the Post.

The Post did not list a time for the flag pole gathering, so check with Post 109 before you go. If you want a bigger celebration, my post on the Baltimore County Veterans Day celebration has the details. The Arbutus Senior Center also lists a program called Our Community Supporting Our Veterans on Monday, November 9, from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

How else can neighbors give back this season?

The Post's Auxiliary has been busy. It ran a school supply drive for four local elementary schools in September and chaired a Coats for Kids drive in October. Once Coats for Kids wraps up, the Auxiliary plans a Veteran's Tree Holiday Collection, where you pick a gift tag from the Christmas tree in the Post canteen, buy the item and return it in the bag provided. Ask at the Post for the details.

What does this mean for families moving to Arbutus?

Traditions like this are part of what makes Arbutus feel like a hometown. If you are new in town, an event like Breakfast with Santa is an easy, low key way to meet other families.
