Santa is missing from the North Pole! It has been rumored that Santa Claus has left his workshop and can be found wandering throughout local businesses from Dec. 2 through Dec. 5. This errant Santa is carrying tickets with him for a $100 drawing at Santa’s Workshop Craft Boutique on Dec. 6, from 10-5 p.m., located in the Tehachapi Moose Lodge on West F Street. in Tehachapi. By using the clues below, local residents can find Santa and have their name placed in the drawing for one hundred bucks from St. Nick. Participants may attend several sightings for a better chance at the drawing. Santa has asked that the winner be present for the 3 p.m. drawing the day of Santa’s Workshop Craft Boutique. Santa Sightings is sponsored by Gateway Connections and HEARTS, a nonprofit organization that assists families of special needs children and adults. The search is on!
