Meet Santa Frank In Person
My name is Frank Gundaker, though most folks now call me Santa Frank. My story started as the "family Santa," then as the jolly visitor at the restaurant where I worked. After retiring, I chose to make that joy my full-time calling. I am a University of Santa Claus graduate, an active member of Palm Tree Santas and IBRBS, insured, background-checked, and I bring more than twelve years of experience engaging children through arts and craft shows.

Flexible Year-Round Santa Visits

How My Santa Story Began
My journey as Santa started close to home. I first put on the red suit to delight my own family, then found myself playing Santa for the restaurant where I worked. Those evenings of shy smiles turning into belly laughs stayed with me. When I retired, I knew I wanted my days to keep looking like that, filled with simple moments of wonder.
From Hobby Suit To Trusted Santa
To honor that calling, I trained at the University of Santa Claus and joined Palm Tree Santas and IBRBS. Along the way, I spent more than twelve years leading arts and craft shows with children, learning how to keep groups happy, calm, and included. Now I bring that same steady, childlike joy into homes, schools, businesses, and community events as a fully insured, background-checked Santa.
