There it was! A photograph of Santa Matty mid air, hair flying in the wind, with an airplane above and in the background! There was no sleigh in site! He was sky diving for his 60th birthday and doing it right between two of our biggest Santa Experience days!  I have over 12,000 hours of flying time, some of it upside down, but I'm not jumping out of a perfectly normal airplane. Needless to say I was having a heart attack! Well he did land safely and was there for the children on our next Santa Experience day, but the entire event got me to thinking. What if Santa gets sick or some such thing? Our Santa experience days are packed and our clients are busy for the holidays so it is often difficult to reschedule. I needed someone to help out and possible do off season work. Meet Santa Travis. He is a gentle man who loves children and takes his roll as Santa Claus very seriously. He recently visited with some children at our studio, the "Alpine Workshop." He is excited to help us with our Christmas in July Santa Experience coming up next month and some additional events in Oct. You are of course always free to request him if you like. Combining Santa Travis with Santa Matty will allow us to provide you with more booking dates as well as better service in the event of some unforeseen problem. We are very excited to have him on board!
