Santa lands bi-plane for special party with kids: Bowman Field Airport (KLOU), Louisville, Kentucky

 LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) – Santa made a very special visit to Louisville today but ditched his normal ride for a bright red bi-plane. 

 He delivered presents to more than 120 children with Down Syndrome out at Bowman Field for the Down Syndrome of Louisville Christmas Party

The group has held the party every year for the last 5 years.

“Just to see the joy in the children’s faces because some of our children have had medical challenges and just to see them healthy and smiling is just the best gift anyone can expect,” Down Syndrome of Louisville’s Diana Merzweiler said.

Down Syndrome of Louisville uses the party as a way for families to connect with each other and share their challenges and success and share personal stories of why they are involved with the organization.
