We are not scheduling specific group tours of any attractions. Information will be available so folks can visit any of the historic sites St. Augustine offers on their own or in smaller groups on Saturday or Sunday. We will have a two day pass on the Red Train. AND, perhaps the best news of all: Plans are almost complete …………. Santa Phil Wentz has agreed to send us THE TRAVELING "SANTA CLAUS OATH" DISPLAY, along with the signature page so each Santa and Ms Claus who did not attend the Celebrate Santa Convention in March can sign this oath! and they too will have their names on display for your children's grand children to see their great-great grandfather was Santa! I think this is such a very special opportunity, don't miss it! The Santa Claus Oath Ceremony will be at 9:30am Saturday. Everyone who couldn't make it to St. Augustine last year heard about how much FUN we had, so don't delay, make your reservations today! Please send me a note so I can keep a list! Thanks Collecting smiles, Santa Bob |
