Fantasy Flight 2015

Another exciting year of Fantasy Flight! Jamie was on the board of the Inland Northwest Business Travel Association when they decided to select Fantasy Flight as their charity to support from the annual auction. Ever since then, she's been hooked on participating in the event directly. This event takes about 65 of the areas most underprivileged children to the North Pole for an adventure they'll never forget. We "Santa's Elves" meet the kids at the airport and take them on a real flight. After the magic chants and waving the magic wands, we land in the "North Pole". There are many fun stations to go to, but the best is obviously when they get to see Santa!

Here's Trixie! No human names aloud during this day.

It's an Elfie Selfie!

Arts and crafts station where kids can make their own ornaments

Kids turn in their Polar Express ticket to get punched, then a train comes through the tunnel with a special gift on it just for them.

More treats than you can even imagine!

Setting up Ms. Claus's goodies. Elves love sugar loaded kids. Woohoo...

This is just a start... and the kids love the ice cream buffet even more!

Every kid get a cookie with their own name on it

Trixie caught enjoying a treat at the North Pole!

This is a station where kids decorate their own frames. We put their picture with Santa in them.

Frosty's Closet allows the kids to pick out their own special Christmas pajamas

Trixie's child was so excited to get brand new p.j.'s that he wanted to put them on right away!

This way to the Tinsel Tinkle rooms!

Post office where the kids can write letters to Santa

Merlin's Magic Chamber is the best! While we watch an exciting magic show, the kids are called in one by one to see Santa! Santa has a giant bag of toys for each kid. 

These are all photos from the set up and orientation time. Once we go to meet the kids, all phones and personal belongings are locked up, because elves don't need them (and some kids aren't allowed to be photographed). The entire day/night is so magical. It's life changing for these kids, but also for us!
