CONWAY — Attendance was off from last year’s total of 301 and the record of 306 diners set in 2015, but there was no shortage of holiday cheer, camaraderie and great food at Wednesday’s American Legion Post 95 Christmas Day feast, with about 175 guests served at the annual dinner — including Santa Claus himself.
The feast was presented at noon by Post 95 of North Conway with the help of volunteers at the Conway Congregational Church.
