What I meant is he had the equipment and printed them. It is just our standard logo, as far as I know.
Russell Albright replied to the topic 'Norpac Santa window decals. in the forum General Questions 12 months ago
Those were made, if I remember correctly, by Jerry Galland. Who has unfortunately moved to Arizona.

Norpac Santas, vice-presidentRussell Albright replied to the topic Membership Requirement in the forum General Discussion 1 year, 1 month ago
As a chapter organization of IBRBS (which said organization does
not have any such membership requirement), we will not be
implementing any vaccine requirement into the membership
requirements for our organization. To quote another Santa, where
does it stop? Do we then require flu-shots as well? What about
Santas that…[Read more]Russell Albright replied to the topic Membership Requirement in the forum General Discussion 1 year, 1 month ago
I agree with Santa Jerry Galland, whether to vaccinate or not is
a personal decision, we are a membership organization of IBRBS,
which has no such requirement.
My vaccine status is nobody’s business except those that I choose
to share it with.Russell Albright started the topic Norpac Sleigh in the forum General Questions 1 year, 3 months ago
Robert MacDonald contacted me and let me know that the sleigh that Norpac made is available to use for events. But the borrower would need a place to store it as he is needing the space again.
Contact Robert MacDonald for details.

Re: Book Recommendation?
Cynthia Collier – santaandmrsclaus@wavecable.com – 11/8/2019I read one for the first time last year called The Christmas Unicorn by Anna Currey. I expected it go over ok, but I was shocked at how much both the girls and the boys loved it.

I am so overwhelmed with emotion as I had a dozen Santa responses to my post. I can’t tell you how much this touches me and will mean to my friend. I have confirmed with a Santa to come for this event. I knew deep down the magic of Christmas would make something happen if I put my need out there. You are all so amazing! Thank you so so much! My heart is so full!
They are seeking a fully Vaccinated Santa
I would like thank IBRBS and NORPAC for this wonderful opportunity. I attended the School of Santas in Branson, MO July 15-18. We received instruction from a Professional Photographer, A Mrs. Claus that n0t only instructed the Mrs. Claus’s in attendance but also the Santas on how to best work as a team. Our primary instructor was Santa True conducting his Christmas Performer Workshop. As you might imagine the four days were jab packed with information and fellowship with all of the other attendees.
Thank
Santa Mark

Gig has been booked. 5/10/22
I am Emailing them about this Job? I am a bit anxious to work with Children again? It’s been awhile? Can only work a few hours
I am possibly interested in this, not sure what to charge?
Has anyone ever done something like this in exchange for a receipt of tax-deductible donation?
It is about 2 hours round trip for me.
The other concern is 200 children in 2 hours?
Any thoughts?
Cheers!
Danta
We are just 30 mins. away from this & will be talking to her for this event.
This event with 200+ children will be very fast pace for pictures.
Enjoy
