How it started:

In 2020 Covid hit and it was as if there would be no Christmas. There were no Santas at the mall, no holiday events…. So Aodhan took it upon himself to do something to help. He began construction on his outfit. Every piece has been made by or altered by him in one fashion or another. Door to door armed with a mask and face shield. From Seashells to pants Aodhan remembers every person he met. He attempted to do a drive through where children could visit safely with Santa from inside their car at a local church, but it was unsuccessful. Nevertheless he continued on to bring cheer and hope to people he knew. This year armed with a vaccine and a mask he intends to spread that same hope. Being Santa isn’t reserved just for  for when you wear the suit. It is a year round event and something you carry with you deep in your heart. This year, armed with a vaccine and a face mask… And this time a beard, he intends to once again go forth and spread joy. From pants to seashells he will never forget that first Christmas.
