From the Big Guy Himself (Santa)

(Rein)Deer Nice & Naughty Crawlers,

Thank you so much for Supporting the Claus! With nearly 40 stops on the Crawl, and the expectation of 5,000 Crawlers, this year is proving to be the largest Reno Santa Pub Crawl EVER!

Over the past 12 months, my team of Little Helpers have been working hard to bring you the 10th Santa Crawl. So please, while you’re out there, wassailing, let’s try to keep things under control. Be respectful of each other and the fine establishments that have opened their hearts and doors to Support the Claus this year. Many of which have been doing that since our humble beginning.

Since the first Crawl in 2000, we have had very few police related incidents. There have been no reported DUIs due to the Crawl. No fights. No destruction. No Riots. No reason for the the police or the city to want to shut us down.
Help us maintain that record and credibility, and keep an eye out for fellow Crawlers.

You’re the reason the Reno Santa Pub Crawl is such a huge success and has become one of the largest gatherings of Santas in the United States. We have people traveling from all around the world to attend this and rumor has it that the San Francisco Santa Crawl adjusted their dates so they could attend the Reno Crawl. Let’s give them all something to remember!

Please, don’t drink and drive. There is no excuse…the Silver Legacy has a special rate for Crawlers. I’m sure you can find a group of friends and distribute the cost. Be Safe. Drink responsibly. Just because it’s cheap, doesn’t mean you have to have one more. And be Smart. Remember, it’s all for Charity.

Happy Crawl, Crawlers!

Tally Ho Ho Ho!
