Smitty was a great Santa for the kids!! We will book him again next year if he’s available:)
Smitty Clause brought much needed holiday joy and smiles to the faces of not only our youngest, but also our oldest children. He was professional and easy to communicate with. He is the perfect addition to any holiday! Also got our daughter cleaning her room last night.

We love you Smitty Clause! Thank you for being so magical. We hope to have you back next year 🩷
Made the experience very fun but also shared a great message with the kids explaining what Christmas is all about.
Santa Claus
We hired Smitty Claus for a commercial, and he turned our shoot into a festive fiesta! From his awesome Santa vibes to his infectious energy, Smitty's the real deal. He's not just a Santa; he's a Santa with a cause—spreading joy and doing good.

Fantastic Santa. The kids absolutely loved him, he was photogenic, friendly and very authentic. Thanks Smitty Clause!
Smitty had great communication. He came on Christmas Eve. He stayed in character the whole time! He didn't make us feel rushed. The kids loved him! Highly recommended.
Professional, jolly, on time and a pleasure to work with. What more can you ask for? Will definitely be contacting again in the future for more Santa work! Thank you!!!!!
An easy and wonderful experience from booking to event day. Smitty was a great addition to our Santa Brunch event at our club and all the children and families had nothing but great things to say about Santa.
Punctual, communicative, and stylish.
See you next year Smitty!

Santa was just what our party needed this year. He was so great with all the kids. My daughter was impressed when he said he’d seen some of her artwork and how good she’s becoming as an artist. The magic is real! Thank you!

What to Expect
You can expect a jolly and fun loving, naturally bearded Santa. I have the ability to adapt to a wide variety of situations and people. From sitting with the kids and getting their wish list, reading The Night Before Christmas, to singing Christmas carols. Of course there are the photos, most events tend to spend about half the time taking photos, which I enjoy immensely. If it is a lively enough crowd, I may teach them the Santa Boogie.
About
I have been Smitty Clause since 2010. I did not choose to a Santa, I feel that I was chosen. I have a real beard and I don't dye my hair or beard. I am generally good natured person that loves to bring joy to others. The majority of the revenue that I receive go towards my charity, Clause With a Cause. We are a 501c organization, therefore my fee/donation are tax deductible. The majority of those funds are used to buy Christmas gifts for the women and children in the shelters at the Domestic Violence Resource Center in northern Nevada. We receive a list of wants and needs for 50 - 80 women and children and we fulfill their needs. We also give assistance to other local charitable organization as well. Despite the fact that I receive no monetary compensation, this is the most rewarding thing that I have ever done. If you are looking for a real, honest to goodness Santa, I am your guy. I will bring joy and magic to your event while being kind, respectful and polite.
Additional Booking Notes
If you want to do photo sessions, I would suggest a festive back drop and an overstuffed chair.
