Free Santa Picture Sign-Up

Who doesn't want a picture with the Big Man himself?! This year we are doing FREE pictures with Santa for your family. But, we all hate standing in line. So we are channeling the big sports store that shall not be named (Hint: It has a fish in its name) and assigning 15 minute windows for 8-10 families.  Each timeslot is for 1 family, so just choose 1 for your family.

Every picture is free!  Every family will be able to get a digital copy after the event. Sign up quickly because space is limited.
