All participants will receive a full Santa suit! Yes, that's right, A FULL SANTA SUIT! (One size fits most).
Entry fee proceeds will be donated to our charity partner, Toys for Tots. We have two entry options:
-$5 + a new, unwrapped toy for Toys for Tots
-$20 flat fee (you are still welcome to bring a toy to donate!)
Toy donations will be collected at packet pickup and taken to Toys for Tots by our staff members.
Every toy donated earns you a ticket into our raffle to win a pair of Altra shoes!
