This is one of the Many Santa Visits I have made

Gallery photo 10 of Joliet Santa Claus

Overview

Santa comes to your home, office or event for a prearranged visit, pass out presents, take pictures & spend time with family, friends & children. I have a real beard! I give back to the community. I take a percentage of what I earn & buy toys for families in need. I also receive donations for families in need. My Father, Brother & now me have all been Santa's. My father started the tradition in the 1950s. I have the magic now. Working with client in any way. Have, optional Santa and Mrs. Claus Package

Also, I am the Easter Bunny. I come to your house office or business. Take photos with the children & families. If you have plastic or hardboiled eggs you want me to pass out I will.

What to expect

I have a real beard. I am willing to work with client to make sure all aspects of the event go well. Generally I like to have all the Children take pictures with Santa. Santa can also pass out presents. I have done hundreds of stops and will make sure to put a smile on everyone's faces.

About

Over 30 years experience in the Santa Claus business. It is a family tradition. My father was Santa, my brother and now me. I also was the head elf for many years. My father started the tradition in the 50s and passed it down to my brother and me. Santa is in my DNA. When you I arrive you are getting someone who puts their heat and soul into being Santa! I have had adults tell me they believe in Santa again by the time I leave. I have had some of the same clients who my father was their Santa and now I am their Children's Children Santa! I like to tell Santa stories and share the love of Christmas.

Additional booking notes

Santa usually requests a chair and an area where the Children can come up for pictures and pass out Presents. Sometimes Santa brings an elf when possible.
