Children of all ages are invited to take a ride on the NATCHEZ Steamboat for the annual Sailing with Santa cruise. Everyone will have an opportunity to take a picture with jolly ole Saint Nick before sailing down the Mississippi River. Santa will be collecting new, unwrapped toys for children affected by the Gulf Coast oil spill that he will deliver to Catholic Charities before making his way up to the North Pole to prepare for Christmas. The cruise is free for anyone donating gifts
