  1. More great Knott's pics....thank you! Do you happen to know how long they used the Igloo for Santa? I almost want to say I remember visiting him there as a very small child, but it would have had to have been the early 1970's. Boy, Santa got moved around a lot at Knott's over the years. During the time I worked there, he was in the cabin out on Grand Ave. one year, in Jeffries Barn a few times, and one year (1983) he was out by the Volcano in sort of a "Gypsy" Wagon. I always wondered if that wagon went back to the days of the old Gypsy Camp.

  3. Wow...thanks for the info! So my vague memory of the igloo must be accurate. I wonder what they did with the cabin? I remember them telling us they had gotten it as a build-your-own cabin "kit."
