In a previous post it was mentioned that there were multiple different delivery dates; is this still the case?

Either way, thank you so much to my Santa! Looking forward to it.

When do we start the airing of grievances? Before or after the feats of strength?

Attention Mean Mr. Mustard - your Santa is curious if your gift showed up.

Poor TheScorpion:

“ Looks like I won’t be able to go around today. 24 hour delay on the delivery for scorp. Last item came in today, so still got to wrap it.”


The once festivus miracle has quickly transformed into a grievance to be aired one year from
Now.

Be on the look out for tomorrow!

No worries!

Speaking of Festivus, I just wrote this article over at FlamesNation. It is my not-so-secret Santa gift to you all.

"Airing Festivus grievances for members of the 2020-21 Flames"

My "secret" Santa nailed it.



Thanks so much to my Santa and to surferguy! You can already count me in for next year.

Merry Christmas everyone!

surferguy thank you so very much for organizing all of this, it has been fantastic being apart of this and I look forward to next year.

My Santa definitely thought about my gift and couldn稚 have been more original. I got a donation in my name for the Okanagan rail trail and a part for pimping out my bike when I ride it. It is a replacement top cap that is magnetic so you can put beer caps on it. I am not sure how to post pictures as I never do it so here is a link for the part.

Have a great Christmas everyone!

Looking forward to a return of our boys in a few weeks. GO FLAMES GO!

NSFW!


Secret Santa hit it out of the park, thanks again. Looks like I have a lot of drinking and battling the kids tonight! NSFW due to image size.

My Santa was incredibly generous to me this year.

His gift box started with all the fixings to make a fire!!

Spoiler!


Under the bundle of wood, He included custom engraved wooden key tags with our business name on them. These will be going on all of our guest keys for our rooms

Spoiler!


Finally, he topped it off with an extremely well made wooden cutting board. We have wanted one of these for a while now and will replace some of our aging plastic ones.

Spoiler!


There was also a magnet that I forgot to grab a picture of.

I feel like I hit the jackpot this year. Thank you very much.

Well I think that accounts for everybody? This year has been the best to date in my opinion. People seemed to be a bit more engaged for some reason which is just awesome. We had participants in three cities and I don’t think it was too difficult to make that happen.

That said if anybody has suggestion to help this be better for next year I am all ears and open to discussion. Any questions I should include or remove? Ideas to add?

Lastly - if you have any curiosity about taking part in this - thank this post and I’ll send you a PM next year so you won’t miss it.

Thank you everybody for taking part and I look forward to building on this momentum and having the 4th annual Secret Santa being marginally better!

I’d also like to echo my thanks. It really is awesome and thank you so much for organizing this. I debated it the last couple years and didn’t partake, but I will again next year.

And again, thanks to my secret Santa!
