The jolly old man with the beard is taking a break from toy-making to come to town this Saturday to see what all the good little boys and girls in San Jose want for Christmas. Tell your mom or dad to bring you to the Almaden Golf & Country Club on Saturday morning. You can meet with Santa and his elves, get your picture taken with Santa, listen to Christmas music, eat a yummy breakfast and…you might even get a present from the bearded man himself!

Tickets are Adults $25.00; Children 2-10 years $20.00 (children must be accompanied by a paying adult); Under 2 $10.00 (Pictures & Goodies).  Last minute reservations are possible if you call the Almaden Valley Counseling Service by the end of the day Friday at (408) 997-0200. All money raised benefits the AVCS.
