Santa's Village Santa Cruz

A couple of snapshots of visitors posing on a mushroom at the Santa's Village in Santa Cruz California. I would love to find the cup being held by the girl in the first photograph.

A bevy of beauties pose at the wishing well.

  1. I did not realize that there was more than one Santa's Village. Do you think it was a chain? Just curious....

  2. I think that there were two Santa's Villages in California, and maybe another one in Illinois. Or something.

    Considering how long the Villages were around, you sure don't see much in the way of souvenirs, except for post cards.

  3. Connie-the three Santa's Village were owned by the same investors. Santa Cruz (actually at Scott's Valley) closed in the late 1970s and Dundee in Illinois is still open.
