Santa paid a special visit to visually impaired students in Winston-Salem. Industries for the Blind helped put together the hangout.

"I think they're very happy with him coming and they get to rub his sleeve and know that his uniform - or his suit - is fuzzy and hear his HO HO HO helps them have a Merry Christmas," said Youth Program Coordinator Kim Flanagan.

Students also told Santa their last minute gift ideas, and even sang songs with him.
