Santa Claus Says Town Board Is Naughty

RIVERHEAD: During last Thursday’s work session, the Riverhead Town Board got a surprise pre-Christmas visit from Santa Claus, who handed each member a special gift before heading back to his sleigh.

Apparently someone thought Councilmen John Dunleavy, George Gabrielsen and James Wooten, along with Councilwoman Jodi Giglio and Town Supervisor Sean Walter were all naughty this year. Instead of toys and sweets, each of them unwrapped lumps of coal.
