About

I am a professional Santa Claus. 20 years experience. Graduate of C W Howard, St. Nicholas Institute and many other on-line classes and workshops including story-telling, acting and Santa Claus and Christmas history.
My mission is to create lasting memories for ALL, in a fun interactive way. Open to discussing "the reason for the season" (Christian) and inclusive diversity if desired.
I offer a Santa presentation of Santa Claus in a manner described by one parent as "fresh off the sleigh" that will create magic and wonder for all.
I will help you to make the arrival of Santa a lasting memory for all. We will talk before the event and Santa Joe will help you from start to finish.

Additional booking notes

Please have the room temperature set at 67 degrees and do not seat Santa next to a live fire as my suit is hot.
