To celebrate the 20th year of presenting my schools in cities across the United States, I am revising and updating the agenda. With so many changes in our industry during the past decade, I feel it is important for the school to keep up with the times.
And I am very pleased to accept the invitation of the Idaho Santas to visit and teach in their state.
One of my firm beliefs is that Santas need to start early in the year, especially if they want to make the best of the training they are receiving. So, getting your training done by summers-end allows you the time necessary to apply what you have learned.
As with all of our schools, this is for all Santas, Mrs. Claus and those interested in the Santa industry. Whether you are real-bearded or theatrically bearded; professional or just a volunteer, this school has something for everyone.
In addition, the course book, “Behind the Red Suit, The Business of Santa,” has some new sections and is included with all new student registrations. Alumni may also order a copy of the 20th Anniversary course book at a discount.
LODGING – A block of rooms has been reserved at the Quality Inn, 2526 W. Airport Way, Boise, ID, 83705. (208) 336-0077. The rate per night is $__ for a single occupancy. This includes Free WiFi and daily breakfast. The deadline to reserve a room is August 10, so call today. Mention School4Santas
Registration for the two-day standard school is just $309, $459 for a couple. This includes 16 hours of training, the 275+ page course book and your personalized diploma, or two diplomas for a couple. Travel, meals and lodging are not included.
Alumni Rates are just $239 per person, and $329 per couple and include the full course and diplomas, no course book.
For 2022, I am returning to hosting just a two-day school. And, instead of a third day, with a live advanced session, I will offer my advanced training, “Making the Moment,” as a home study that you can add for just $99 when added to the regular school registration.
This will include the full 6-hours of my advanced training, and includes a copy of my newest book, “Making the Moment,” containing tips, advice, techniques and almost 200 photos and diagrams for the Professional Santa and Mrs. Claus. Special certificates acknowledging advanced study, will be presented.
AGENDA – The daily school schedule is from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm. For the full agenda click here. Prior to attending the school all students are invited to watch “The History of Santa Claus,” a special video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/UaTsHXJFtSs
SANTA CLAUS OATH – At the close of our first day of class, around 4:30 pm, I will host a presentation of the Santa Claus Oath. All Santas and Mrs. Claus from the region are most welcome to join the class in the Oath ceremony. One does not need to attend the school to take part in the ceremony. Special Oath certificates, suitable for framing will be presented to all attendees.
Also, on the evening of the first day of class, On Saturday evening the IDAHO SANTAS have arranged a casual dinner at 6:00 pm. at the Black Bear Diner, 1731 S. Entertainment Ave., Boise, ID 83709. (208) 322-1888. Again, all regional Santas, Mrs. Claus, families and friends are most welcome to attend. You do not need to attend the school to join us for dinner. (Separate checks please.)
Finally, at the close of class on the second day, again around 4:30 p.m. we will hold a ceremony to present diplomas to all students.
