                                                                  The Santa Claus Oath

  I will seek knowledge to be well versed in the mysteries of bringing Christmas cheer and good will to all the people that I encounter in my journeys and travels.

  I shall be dedicated to hearing the secret dreams of both children and adults.

  I understand that the true and only gift I can give, as Santa, is myself.

  I acknowledge that some of the requests I will hear will be difficult and sad.  I know in these difficulties there lies an opportunity to bring a spirit of warmth, understanding and compassion.

  I know the “real reason for the season” and know that I am blessed to be able to be a part of it.

  I realize that I belong to a brotherhood and will be supportive, honest and show fellowship to my peers.

  I promise to use “my” powers to create happiness, spread love and make fantasies come to life in the true and sincere tradition of the Santa Claus Legend.

  I pledge myself to these principles as a descendant of Saint Nicholas the gift giver of Myra.
