does anyone have a favorite Santa, we have gone to Southpark the last 2 years and in both pictures he is frowning so much you would have though one of the kids just peed on his lap. Definitely not a jolly guy!
does Blackhawk hardware in Park Road Shopping Center still have a Santa? We went there about 3 years ago and they were great!Also, has anyone seen the lights at Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens? Is it worth the drive?Thanks!!
The Santa at Blackhawk was the greatest! He hasn’t been there for the past two years. :o(
I agree, Southpark Santa is terrible!! Is he the same this year? Anyone know?
We went to the lights at Daniel Stowe last year – it was magnificent, and the conservatory with the orchids is an amazing sight. Well worth the trip in my book.
I was at South Park the other day , i remember thinking the Santa looked miserable. I’ve never taking my kids there for Santa so Im not sure if it is the same one but it sounds like it.
Went to Daniel Stowe last year. Agreed. Magnificent. Highly recommnend it. Obviously go after dark for the full effect.
Is there anywhere to see Santa that you can use your own camera and not have to “purchase a minimum photo package”? I agree, Southpark Santa is not a jolly guy!
Bad experience with Carolina Place Mall Santa!! I have been a faithful Santa goer at South Park for many years, he’s never given us a problem and is usually very friendly and smiling for us. However, this morning at South Park it was a zoo! Granted I did go the Monday before Christmas and the line was a bit long for the toddlers to wait in. So we decided, after hearing from another fellow mom, that Carolina Place had a shorter line that we would try to go this evening after naps and dinner. We checked the times online and I even called the mall to confirm. We got to the mall at 6:30 and were in line at 6:45. The line was reasonable and I was hopeful, Santa was to return at 7:00 from “feeding the reindeer”. As the line moved and as we got closer to the front, a young man approached us, granted we have been waiting now a half hour at the BACK of the line as most people do. He asked us if we had pagers. I of course said no, there were no signs no one in line ahead or behind us seem to know what he was talking about. But I was told that I would have to wait 2 hours and 45 minutes if I didn’t have a pager, and I probably would not get to see Santa. (He says this to me with my kids in earshot!) I was astounded! I was also told that there was a sign (with this ridiculous rule) at the front of the line, on a small 8 1/2 by 11 size paper. Who goes to the front of the Santa line to read a sign? It’s been understood, at least I understood it as to go to the mall, wait in line and get your picture taken, none of this pager stuff!! SO for all you who may want to go to Carolina Place Mall, get there early so you can get a pager and then wait in line! Very annoyed mom!!
Angel, I’m so sorry to hear of that horrible experience. What a Grinch! I specifically avoided mall santas this year and a Smarty friend told me about the Santa at Blacklion. This was INCREDIBLE and it was their first year. Santa arrives every Saturday on a firetruck and the festivities begin in their beautiful winter wonderland. They pass out cookies, hot chocolate and have three bears similar (or maybe even related) to the uptown Bearstein bears. We will definitely do a reminder early next year since it’s only on Saturdays. But truly magical and according to my 7-year-old, this Santa is the “real deal”! No fake mustaches here!
