2023 Letters to Santa Campaign
With the holiday season quickly approaching, it’s time for children to begin writing their letters to Santa! Joplin Parks and Recreation is proud to offer the “Letters to Santa” campaign again this year.
Children are invited to write a letter to Santa and drop it in Santa’s Mailbox at the Joplin Parks and Recreation offices at 3301 W. 1st Street or at Academy Sports & Outdoors, located at 1717 S. Range Line Road. An after-hours mailbox is also available at the Department's office.
Santa’s Mailbox will be available from November 15th – December 8th. Letters must include the child's first and last name, a return mailing address, and a few details about the child (school if attending, brothers or sisters, pets, friends, and a wish list).
The letters will be delivered to the North Pole and Santa will write back a personalized letter to each child who sends him a letter.
Please address letters to:
Santa’s Workshop
9 Reindeer Road
North Pole
If a response letter hasn't been received by mid-December, you can call our office (417-625-4750) to confirm the letter was received and was sent to Santa for a response. If we are notified after Christmas that Santa's letter wasn't received, we're able to contact him and he will write to a kiddo who was somehow missed.
