At the last meeting of the lions club, I turned over $ 50.00 cash recieved from a private family kids party that Santa attended. This means Santa has earned $100.00 for his efforts this past christmas.(2007). But its not about the money although requesting a small donation of $50.00 per apperence is a real good deal should you research the cost in renting a suit and finding someone willing to wear it.
For private functions, parties etc. the donation will be required.
For all other functions such as a visit to the Ronald MacDonald House, the Salvation Army kettle drive there would be of course, no charge.
Santa added two more functions to his datebook this past christmas. One was attending a childrens party for Spanish familes put on by a group called MAPP. The other was the Hyde Park Lions Clubs " breakfast with Santa" These two were also no charge.
So Santa is back at the " Pole" with his feet up, resting and getting ready for christmas 2008.
Until then, " Peace on earth and good will towards men".
