Some of the mystique of Santa Claus comes from his elusive nature. If everything goes according to plan, you’ll never see him. Well, if elusiveness isn’t for your kids, you can have them swim with Santa at this YMCA event. The evening starts off with the obligatory photo shoots, followed immediately by a dip in the heated, indoor pool. If that’s not enough for your discerning kin, there’s also a storytime session with Mrs. Claus, an ornament-making lesson with Santa’s elves, some reindeer games for playing and pizza and cocoa for sale. The event is free, but you can donate $2 to the YMCA or a non-perishable food item for the Food Bank. 2021 W Street, ymcasuperiorcal.org/swimwithsanta.
