I am an experienced (40 + yrs.) professional clown, balloon twister, face painter, and Seasonal Santa Claus providing the Lansing, East Lansing, and Greater Mid Michigan areas (Maximum range 145 mile radius) with room decor and reputable family and business entertainment. I have been putting heartwarming smiles on adults and children's faces since 1980. That is over forty years as a skilled variety, party entertainer at fair and affordable prices bringing laughter and smiles to thousands of children of all ages. No matter if it is with magic, balloon twisting, clown skits, storytelling, face painting, ventriloquism, glitter tattoos, or another fabulous skill, lives are touched with excitement, enchantment, and memories that will last forever.
I was trained in the beginning by a professional circus clown entertainer/instructor at Lansing Community College. Since then, I have upgraded and expanded my skill levels of clowning, balloon decor, and fancier balloon twisting. I now provide an advanced level decor and variety entertainment to the Lansing, East Lansing, and all Greater Mid-Michigan areas, coast to coast. (110-mile standard or 145-mile maximum radius by special arrangements for food/ lodging as needed for start times).
Expanded Variety entertainment also includes face painting Brush/Sponge, airbrush and glitter tattoos, henna/designs (by request), puppets, ventriloquism, and storytelling.
Our list of performances at Youth Events include: Alex's Duck Duck Race, Coast Guard Festival, Classic K-9 Shows, Charlotte Fair, Charlotte Frontier Days, St. Johns Easter Egg Hunt, Montrose Blueberry Festival, Mid-Michigan Renaissance Festival, and other community events.
I enjoy working with special needs children and children of all ages via age-appropriate audience participation. I include puppets, skits, gags, and magic when needed in my clown shows. I have, at no extra charge, themed hats to wear as a twister to meet seasonal/ special needs for your particular event. I often customize shows to fit challenged budgets and offer discounts to schools, churches and charities. Estimates and consultations are always free. Please feel free anytime to ask questions and to visit my website.
Santa Harold started in the late 80's as a Professional Store Santa in prestigious stores such as K Mart and Franks Nursery and Crafts. Since then the list includes Kellogg's (cereal makers), various other corporations, and numerous "Toys For Tots" events. All in all, he has been bringing laughter, joy, and Christmas Spirit to warm the hearts, over the years, of many thousands if not millions of children of all ages. An early year's photo with his son as an elf appears in profile photos. Now he has a highly professional full mantle look that bridges and blends St. Nicolas, Victorian, Classic Coca Cola, and Storybook characters into today's desired trends.
Hear the bells. See the smiles and faces light up on children's faces as he talks and hands out presents with his Christmas zeal and charm. He is sure to bring happiness and pure delight to your special Holiday Event.
