Michael was an ABSOLUTE DELIGHT to have join our occassion. He showed up 5 minutes early and immediately snapped into character, making the evening a most enjoyable occassion for me and all of my guests. After our party I had several guests comment on his genuine authenticity, and many are once again 'Believers'! Thanks again Mike, and anyone who's interested in having THE Santa should book him...after me!
