Kids get their picture taken with the jolly old elf. They also take home a candy cane and a prize, and a lot of wonderful memories. Nobody's gotten sick or anything on Santa's lap. The worst thing is occasionally you'll have a little one who's a bit scared to be with a stranger, that's all. It's a very rewarding experience for the Xenia native.
Kids come back year after year.
