The North Pole setup for meeting Santa is pretty good. Taking place in the former Sky Bucket Station near Acrophobia

Guests are admitted one party at a time into the area, which features elves handling Santa's various affairs, like checking the naughty & nice list and keeping track of all the letters coming in.

Guests who wish to meet Santa are given a pager to hold their place in line, and can avail themselves of multiple activities, such as games, ornament making (free), "harvesting" candy cane trees (also free), and photo ops.

The stage show at Crystal Pistol was quite good - and shows a lot of promise from the people working the show.

"Grouchy Gator" is a puppet show that brings back memories of the park's epic "Buford the Buzzard" insult comic show. Multiple performances on the Lickskillet stage.
