Hello again!

If you are reading this I would truly like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming to our annual Santa charity drive. This event is has become very special to myself, my team, and the charities we support.

This year we will be keeping it at Horse in Hand Ranch who has generously offered us the use of their stables again, we will be collaborating with Petal and Blum for greenery as well as Elevated Events to bring you a gorgeous set for your family to meet Santa and his elves this year! As well as Oliver June Creations will be handing out Santa letters to each child! 

The charity we have selected is one very close to Horse in Hand, Can Praxis. Which is an Equine-Assisted therapy charity that works with families/children and person(s) to provide mental health recovery programs for Canadian Veterans and First Responders (serving and retired) living with an Operational Stress Injury (OSI), such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This is very special to us as Santa and a couple of his elves are first responders themselves! 100% of proceeds will go to Can Praxis. All volunteers are donating their time and products to this event. 

we also will be accepting non perishable items for the red deer food bank again! As last year they completely ran out of food.

Time: 11am - 4:30pm
What: Mall style photos, no time slots, come as you can before 4pm. Everything is held inside including any line ups so no need to stress about weather!
