The much awaited schedule! 🏃🏼‍♂️🎅🏼🎄

🏃🏼‍♂️🎅🏼PART 2🏃🏼‍♂️🎅🏼 severely underestimated how much he needed to sprint at the Macoupin County Fairgrounds-he knows you'll be able to find gifts to stuff everyone's stocking Dec. 5-7th! He was really feelin' himself, so he decided to power up those arm muscles at D&D Fitness and Tanning for ultimate sleigh operation. He's also a great listener, you guys said he needs a few more cookies so he opted for an even better choice- Gaye Campbell-Suhling's homemade pie at the Carlinville Plaza Cafe! Where will our overzealous holly jolly sprinter be zooming by next?!? 🤔

is starting his celebration of Christmas in Carlinville on the Historic Downtown Square early!!! He breezed through Brave Hazel Boutique - guess he didn't approve of his self portrait. 🎅🏼 Rested a little at Heinz Furniture and Floor Coverings clearance outlet - thought he was going to fall asleep. Practiced his dance moves to show the elves at Limitless Dance Company - do you offer private lessons?? Where will he be next?? He's fast, funny, and festive!!! 🤘🏼🎅🏼🏃🏼‍♂️
