So.... who is this Santa Rodger person?
I am Rodger Tripp. Happily Married for 51 years. We have three children, two grandchildren and two cats.
A new yellow Lab puppy named Jack.
We have lived in Tallahassee for 46 years.
I graduated from Florida State University with Degrees:
Child Development and Family Relations
Early Childhood Education
Music Education
I taught preschool and was a preschool director for 13 years. The last 35 years I have been Educationally Entertaining in preschools and entertaining in assisted living and memory care facilities.
As "Santa" I will always be in character. I will continue to educate myself in the traditions of Christmas, so I can bring Christmas cheer and love to all people I meet in my journeys and travels. I will open my heart to listen to the secret dreams of both children and adults. I will
never promise a gift to a child as I know the only gift I can give, as "Santa," is me. I will always do my best to pass on the love and joy of the Christmas, Holiday season. I will always fulfill the wishes of children and adults as to their dreams, wishes, and beliefs about
"Santa" and Christmas.
Today, Children see "Santa" everywhere. "How can he be in so many places at one time?"
Many parents tell their children, "From early November up until Christmas Eve
"Santa" needs lots of helpers."
"Are you the real "Santa?"
This is a question all "Santas" hear. I answer in many different ways. Such as, "I looked
real this morning when I saw myself in the mirror brushing my teeth." I also tell
them the "Real Santa" will not tell you he is the "Real Santa," you have to decide.
"Yeah, but... how will I know?"
You will know the "Real Santa" by the feelings in your heart.
After All....."Santa" lives in the Hearts of Many.
Ho Ho Hooooo...On Dasher, on Dancer, On Prancer and Vixen,
On Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen and...... On Rudolph..... Dash Away, Dash Away, Dash Away All!!
Merry Christmas to All and to All a Good Night!!
