Santa Craig Cringle

Based in Owens Cross Roads AL

Welcome, welcome, one and all! I am Craig Cringle, also known as Santa Claus. It is an absolute joy to meet you and share my love for the most wonderful time of the year, all year long. In my heart, I live by the phrase, "Christmas Always".

As a man who embodies the spirit of Christmas all year round, I've always been drawn to the magic and wonder of the holidays. And with my many years of experience coaching youth sports, working with Cub Scouts, and raising three beautiful children of my own with my beloved Mrs. Claus, I know just how much joy the holiday season can bring to the hearts of young ones.

Standing tall at 6'2", the children perceive me as a larger-than-life representation of the Christmas Spirit that fills the heart of Santa Claus. My decades of professional experience in aerospace and aviation given me a unique appreciation for the magic of Santa's sleigh and reindeer, and I can assure you that I take great care in making sure they are always in tip-top shape for the big night.

But it's not just about the magic of Christmas Eve. For me, Christmas is a season of joy and celebration that spans the entire year. From the delicious Christmas spreads that grace tables on Christmas morning, to the joy of decorating the tree and hanging up stockings, to the warm and cozy Christmas breakfasts and lunches with extended family, I cherish every moment of the season.

While Mrs. Claus and I call the North Pole our home base, we spend most of the year at our "vacation home" in the balmy temperatures of Northern Alabama .If you're looking for Santa Claus to bring a touch of magic, wonder, and love to your events, all year round, look no further than me, Craig Cringle. I'll be delighted to make the magic of Christmas happen for you! Merry Christmas!
