Becoming Nick

Becoming Nick Welcome all! Every year in the early autumn, Ron Benson begins to transform into Saint Nick! Santa Ron is a real-bearded Santa. Gentle, kind, and genuine.

Here's where you can watch it all happen and hire Santa Ron for photo shoots or to make a live or virtual appearance at your home, event, school, or business. He is a member in good standing of the International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santas. Santa Ron strives to be an authentic Santa. He doesn't like to scare children, but instead tries to befriend them. He is encouraging, not threatening or

intimidating. He focuses on the positives, not the negatives. Santa Ron doesn't consider himself an "entertainer;" he doesn't juggle, do magic, or blow up balloons. He does love to sing, however!

Happy New Year!

I am grateful for all those who chose to use Santa Ron for their seasonal festivities! I was able to visit churches, a library, a farm, a photo studio, several homes with families, and serve over thirty hours at the Midland Area Santa House! I appreciate your trust in me to provide joy and cheer at Christmas. I hope we can work together again next year!
