Santa Sam never disappoints! This is the 2nd time we have had him at our Family Holiday Event, and he is always a hit! He's great with the kids and is very professional!
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thank you I look forward to seeing you again next year.
Did not like the ukulele. Other than that he was fine
We loved Santa Sam! He was amazing and so friendly! We will be using him in the future!
Friendly and played the role very well.
Santa was on time, friendly and answered all the kids questions appropriately. Would definitely do this again.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thank you and your family for inviting me to be a part of your Christmas in a season of much stress due to the pandemic.
I do hope I was able to bring a little light and joy to your family during this season and hope to see everyone again next year.
Santa Sam was prompt, easy to communicate with, friendly and delightful He brightened everyone's day and spread Christmas cheer throughout the office.
He got there on time and everyone was pleased!
Santa Sam was interactive with the kids and even had a nice list to check the kids name off with.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
The children were great, thank you for letting me be your Santa and I hope we can do it again next year.
Merry Christmas

Santa Sam provided "Santa Claus" services for our company's Family Holiday Event and did not disappoint! His interaction with the children (over 120) was excellent. I would definitely recommend him for your next event!
Santa Sam was perfect for our event! The kids were so excited to see him. He was the life of our party and we’ll definitely book him again.
The kids (and adults) absolutely loved Santa Sam! He was funny, kind and a joy to have. We will definitely be asking him to come back!
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thank you , I love making the children (and Adults) laugh,smile and bring just a little joy to the holiday. I do hope I can become part of your Christmas tradition.
Many Blessings and have a very Merry Christmas
Santa Sam
Santa Sam was fantastic! The kids and adults enjoyed seeing him. Highly recommend Santa Sam for any reason, even if it's just to remind children that he's making his nice and naughty list.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Hi Thank You,
It was a fun visit, I do hope I made a difference. Sometimes a little reminder that Santa is always checking that list is a good thing.
Merry Christmas
Santa Sam
Santa Sam walked in and lit up our office with Christmas Spirit. He is a very friendly and nice to talk with. We hired him for our yearly Christmas video. He took direction very well and the final video turned out incredible.
You can check out the final video here.

Santa was on time, interacted with the kids well and adults. He read a very interesting and animated Christmas story and gave each child a Santa gift. Everything was fine, except Santa reeked of cigarette smoke.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thank you for the review, the children were great, I know I had at least one little fan and one shy angel. Thank you too for making me aware of the odor problem, previous engagement was at a house of smokers, I am sorry and do apologize.
Santa Sam gave my Christmas Bridal Shower just the extra magic I’d hoped to have! All my guests loved getting pics. Thanks for the holiday cheer!
We hired Santa Sam for our family party. Communication was very good, he came on time and interacted wonderfully with the kids.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
I loved watching the children children open their gifts. They were all so beautiful. I hope we can do again next year.
Santa was excellent! Our granddaughters were in shock and awe. Very accommodating and genuine.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
It was a great joy to deliver their special presents, and the expression on their faces when they walked in and saw me was priceless.
Santa Sam made our event a success! He was wonderful with the children and families. The children especially enjoyed when he read them The Night Before Christmas. Everyone loved him! I can't wait to book him for all our Christmas events in the future.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
I look forward to being with you again next year. All the children were so sweet and great and I loved the craft projects they made. Some of the children even made Santa a gift ornament to take home for his Christmas Tree.
Santa Sam was incredible. He is the best looking Santa we've ever worked with, and was personable and approachable for the children. I would absolutely recommend him, and look forward to having him at future events!
We hired Santa Sam for several events we executed in Savannah and he was great. He was easy to get in touch with leading up to the events, responsive, played the part great and was a awesome sport (we had him set up outside in 78 degree weather and he never complained about the heat). We are already in talks about next year's events and having Santa Sam back.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thank you it was so much fun , and I am looking forward to next year. All the folks were great from little babies, to the seniors, sweet children, fun loving adults and a few dogs thrown it the mix. So glad no one showed up with a snake, but who knows maybe next year, lHo Ho Ho Merry Christmas
He was great with the kids, got right down on the floor with them and interacted with them. I would have no problem asking Santa Sam to do an event for me again.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
It was a true blessing to be able to be able to bring Santa to these awesome children.
As a photographer, Santa Sam was more than I could have ever asked for! He looked great, has a WONDERFUL personality, perfect with the children! Will use him for my Christmas mini sessions every year from now on!
Santa Sam did an incredible job! The kids loved him, and he did an amazing job of bringing smiles to their faces! He made sure to take time with each child and make a connection - even the ones that were a bit afraid of Santa. By the end of the evening, even the two that were a bit unsure of Santa (they were little and were historically unsure of Santa - not just Santa Sam but Santa Clause in general) were happily giving high fives with smiles. Overall a wonderful Santa! :-)
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Had so much fun, some children are just a little shy and only like Santa from a distance. But that's OK.
Santa Sam was on time with a smile on his face! Very patient with the children at our client party. We had a lot of "first timers". We would definitely hire Santa Sam again for his wonderful attitude, impeccable costume, and wonderful interaction with our guests.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thank you. I hope we can do it again next year, and maybe we can plan a story time for the children.
Santa Sam arrived at our event, complete with (arranged for) gifts in his bag. The kids were beyond ecstatic, and in awe! He used magic to tell if the kids were on the nice or naughty list, and thank goodness, they were on the nice list! He read The Night Before Christmas substituting third person pronouns for first person, like he was recalling a memory. He sang Christmas carols and talked to the kids about kindness and generosity, but on a level that was appropriate. I am certain Virgina would be satisfied in knowing that yes, there is a Santa Claus! :) he is local to us and a blessing for sure!
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thanks , the children were awesome, and I love storytelling and singing the carols with everyone it was fun. Glad I could help make some happy memories.
The children loved Santa Sam!
We appreciated that he arrived early for set up and stayed until the last child (and adult!) had their picture taken.
We'll definitely call on Santa Sam again!
:-)
Our Santa was prompt, kind, very cooperative, and best of all, he was wonderful with the kids! We invited him to a breakfast with Santa event to celebrate our grand opening.
We could not have been more pleased and hope to invite him back next year.
Response from Augusta, Ga Santa Sam:
Thank you, I loved seeing the people's faces when they saw Santa at the Drive -Thu window. All the children were great. I do hope we can do it again next year.

Hello everyone,
I am a professional full time Christian family and children's entertainer as a Magician, Storyteller and Balloon Twister based out of Augusta, GA. I started Uncle Sam's Magic and Balloon Show in 2005, first as just part time to make a little extra money, after a layoff in 2010 I went full time.
November and December are usually slow months, so in 2015 I decided to try being Santa. I must say I did not know what to expect, but my schedule filled up fast, and now I have several regular clients that book me every year. I love being Santa and seeing the smiles of all the children and listening to their request, as to what they want for Christmas.
I love entertaining, and bringing smiles and laughter to the lives of others.
