Being Shipper1
To Santa’s Village
Ten times in 15 years Grady
Carothers has been coming to
this part of Alaska to take back
deer for Santa’s Village, which is
about 60 miles out of Los Angeles.
This is an amusement park which
draws over a million people a
year, who enjoy the fantasy of
Christmas the year round and
enjoy seeing trained animals in
storybook surroundings.
Mr. Carothers has just pur
chased 26 more reindeer, which
he has selected from the Sigfried
herd at Golovin, which will be
shipped to Fairbanks by plane
and then transported to Los An
geles in specially-built vans which
are now in Fairbanks. They will
join 70 other deer, part of which
are the original deer shipped out
15 years ago. With this new ad
dition and spring fawning there
will be well over a hundred deer
at the park.
Santa’s Village has, of course, a
North Pole which is refrigerated
and kept frosted at all times to
the enjoyment of children and
adults 12 months out of the year.
As many as 18,000 persons a day
pass through the park, Carothers
stated.
The newest act of the many
trained animals is the Pixie Press
run, entirely by animals. A duck
is the reporter, stated Carothers,
who with her bill actually operates
a telegraph key; a trained hen
uses the typewriter; Inky, the
reindeer is editor and operates
a hand press.
In addition to the Los Angeles
Santa’s Village there is now a
Santa’s Village out of San Fran
cisco and another out of Chicago.
Departing with Carothers will
be Sigfried Aukongak Jr., who
will travel to Santa’s Village on
his first trip to the lower 48.
In addition to the work at the
amusement parks, the Alaska deer
travel all over the states in No
vember and December with
Santa Claus himself for Christmas
pageants and parades in many
major cities.
Many motels are found near
the parks where families remain
as long as they wish.
