Santa was so great with the children and so photogenic! Highly recommend! Very professional and classy! If he is up for it, we would like to invite him back next year!
Response from The Inner Banks Santa:
WOW! Am I flattered! Thanks Ms Tami. I had a great time...people were friendly and it was great to hang out with the kids longer than usual. I had fun with everyone! Thanks for trusting me with your event and your children (and please tell Colin THANKS!).
Everyone enjoyed the experience of having quality time with Santa especially our 4 year old granddaughter. It is a memory she will always cherish. Santa was magical and added another dimension to our tour.
Thanks again and have a wonderful Christmas.
Response from The Inner Banks Santa:
Thanks so much for these over-the-top kind words. I adore your granddaughter and she is a great assistant and beautiful child. Tops on the nice list. Thank you for the privilege of being in your home.

Wherever....JOY!
I love kids and love spreading joy. I've raised two fine young men, spent time as a talk show host, Boy Scout, church volunteer, mentor and teacher. As I have "matured", I decided to let my already-white beard grow, eat a few more cookies, get an official uniform, take an online class from the highly-regarded Santa Claus Conservancy and...HO-HO-HO.....Santa Gary comes to town!
Through the Conservancy, I took classes in "how-to", home, school and shopping center visits, community events, video chats, storytelling, visits with special needs children, photo sessions, and more, all to assure a quality, personal Santa experience for your family and friends. I also attended the convention of the International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santas (no kidding!).
Thanks to a happy face and a jolly disposition, kids take to me immediately. The sight of a child running into Santa's arms is one of the great joys at the holidays. I've also done events and visits with senior citizens and handicapped and special needs kids and adults.
Christmas background scene available.
Video calls available.
