Wanna know a secret? Santa has a very special elf in his workshop named Zachary Claus. Zachary was born with Down syndrome, which makes him a little different than most of Santa’s other elves – but starting when Zachary was very, very young Santa noticed that Zachary possessed a very unique and wonderful gift of having the TRUE spirit of Christmas. It is Zachary’s job to teach the other kids, from very young to very old, how Christmas is much more than the presents we receive. To Zachary, the true meaning of Christmas is the beauty of the lights, the sweet sound of carols and the love that is passed between friends, family and even people we have yet to become friends with.
After December, Santa, Mrs. Claus and Zachary have some extra time on their hands while the other elves are busy making the toys for the next Christmas. One of their very favorite things to do is our great American pastime….BASEBALL! The Clauses, along with many of their friends including one of Santa’s very best friends The Grinch (and his faithful dog, Max) LOVE to play baseball for the Field of Dreams Baseball League. They love it so much that Mrs. Claus is a coach of one of the teams in the league!
Field of Dreams is a magical place where every child and even adults with special needs like Zachary can come and play and there is no cost to their family for anything, including cool uniforms! The field is a rubber surface that makes it much easier for the kids to run or push their wheelchair around and it is all fenced in. They even have a giant accessible playground for them for before or after games!
Santa and The Grinch love this league so much that they are donating all of their net proceeds to the league. Please consider having them come out to your upcoming Christmas event in November and December and/or donating to such a wonderful cause.
With Much Love,
Santa, Mrs. Claus, The Grinch & Max (of course).
