Santa’s handlers offer the following tips to the public for an enjoyable experience for all:

1. Visit Santa early in the season, as lines become longer as Christmas nears.

2. For best results, select an outfit color that will work well against the backdrop of Santa’s red suit. Green, silver, white and gold are festive and bright shades for the holiday season.

3. If your child doesn’t care to sit on Santa’s lap, there is additional seating that can be arranged so he/she may sit next to him.

4. If Santa is not in his chair when you arrive, explain to your children that he needed to take a quick break to go feed the reindeer.

5. Enjoy the magic. A visit to Santa is a lifelong memory you will have with your child.
