The JBAB-based Air Force rock band, Max Impact, kicked the event off with energetic holiday music that quickly had children on their feet and dancing. Santa and Mrs. Claus arrived at the event by police helicopter, where they were met by Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer and Frosty the Snowman. Gray stopped by to visit with the children and wish them a merry Christmas. Joint base volunteers, police and Toys for Tots help disadvantaged youth 131218-N-WY366-003
