I live in a town with a Santa School.  Santa School provides resources to men and women to help them be the best Santas and Mrs. Claus they can.  How cool is that?  It’s a wonderful program because who wants a crappy Santa?  No one. 

I am part of a program that provides some supplies to the school during the training.  This training was taking place last week, so a friend and I decided to stop by and see what was up at the school.

So we drive over to the Santa House and walk right into a room full of Santas and a few Mrs. Claus.  And the house itself is quite the place anyway – an elves’ workshop.  The leader spots us – apparently we looked out of place?  We introduce ourselves and talk to him for a few minutes.  Then he introduces us to the attendees.  And then they all stand up and sing us Rudolph: The Red-Nosed Reindeer!  30-some Santas and a handful of Mrs Claus singing to us.  It was outstanding!  I had a smile so big that my face hurt after.  We clapped when they were done, but it couldn’t convey how happy I felt.

We wished them good luck and that we hoped we were on the “Nice” list this year.
