Christmas is a special season for children young and old, in homes and offices in and around the South Eastern VA & NC areas. Of course, Franklin's Best Santa is a big part of the season. Pick the right Santa, and you have a hit on your hands. Make a mistake in picking a Santa and you miss a chance that won't be back again. Franklin’s Best Santa is a hit anywhere your family and friends gather. You want to have a Santa with a real beard who not only 'plays' the role, but IS the Real Santa! Franklin’s Best Santa is a Real Bearded Santa.
