Did you know we haven't always been called Holiday World?

When we opened on August 3, 1946, we were called Santa Claus Land.

And guess who was hard at work?

Of course! The jolly elf himself.

Have the children you love written to Santa yet? If they get their letters in the mail within the next few days, Santa will be sure to write back. Here's his address: Santa Claus, PO Box 1, Santa Claus IN 47579. (Be sure to include a legible return address. Donations, which are used to cover postage, are appreciated.)

Merry Christmas from everyone here at Holiday World & Splashin' Safari!
