The AZ Claus Cause Car Show is this weekend, October 19 from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm at the MCC Neal Campus-Kingman. It includes Santa, Mrs. Claus and an amazing group of volunteers who are committed to spread the “The Magic of Giving” through our Mohave County community. If there is anything in this world that we know is needed, it’s for children to believe in the power of magic and love, said Mrs. Claus.
Santa and Mrs. Claus haven’t always been focused solely on Mohave County. Their love and outreach has spread all over Arizona, Clark County and even Arkansas. All while raising money for food drives and many other worthy causes to help our communities.
You can catch Santa this year at the KRMC Holiday Open House on December 6th from 4:30 pm to 7:00 pm. MCC Shines official lighting ceremony on December 7th from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. For the MCC Shines event at the Kingman campus, please bring a canned food item to help the Kingman area food bank. When Santa’s there for visits, the goal is to make sure EVERY child who comes to see Sant
a this year goes home with a present.
Next year there will be car shows in May, August, and October. Each event raising money for the AZ Claus Cause. You can find a list of all the AZ Clause Cause upcoming events on their website www.azclauscause.com. The AZ Claus Cause long-term goal is to bring joy, education, and employment, as well as increased tourism to the Kingman area.
Santa and Mrs. Claus have been visiting with children for more than 6 years. Up until now they have been giving from their heart, their own pocket book, and small donations, while always believing that the magic of giving will bring a better future for the children in our community.
Many on the Kingman campus may not realize that the pair behind AZ Claus Cause are Steve and Mary from the Bighorn Café. They are amazing people who go above and beyond to help the children in our community. I am always greeted with a smile and great service each time I walk into the Café. IF you’d like to help with their AZ Claus Cause, just stop by or contact them through their website.
