Dress the children in their comfiest pajamas and let them snuggle up with their favorite stuffed toy and blanket as they join Santa Claus for a magical evening in the Alger House. The children will join Santa by the warm glow of the fireplace while they listen to him read some of his beloved holiday stories, tell tales about life at the North Pole, and share his favorite holiday treat…milk and cookies!

Everyone will have an opportunity to share their wish list and snap their own photo with Santa, making for the perfect holiday evening!

SPECIAL HOLIDAY KEEPSAKE
New this year! Santa will read The Night Before Christmas, and children can get their own hardcover copy, and have it signed by Santa as a special memento of their visit with him.

This beautiful keepsake version of the classic story is illustrated by Christian Birmingham. Purchase your copy along with your event ticket at the link above.

A CUDDLY TAKE HOME FRIEND
As an additional add-on, in honor of the 75th Anniversary of The War Memorial, you can purchase a stuffed toy replica of the favorite dog of the Alger Family, the Scottish Terrier. These small dogs once roamed the hallways of the Alger House (now The War Memorial) – take one home as a fun memory of your experience with us!

Purchase your furry friend along with your ticket at the link above.
