Please share and bring these vandals to justice!!
Merry Christmas? Happy Holidays? …
Saturday December 13th at 10:30 pm, a group of grown men chose to vandalize the reindeer at our Santa chair area in downtown Beaufort outside the candy shoppe.
Let that sink in.
A holiday display.
Meant for kids.
Meant for families.
Meant to bring a little joy, light, and normalcy in a world that already feels heavy enough.
BAHA (a non profit) paid for these reindeer. We placed them downtown so our community and visitors could take photos, make memories, and enjoy Santa during the holidays. We do this because joy matters. Community matters.
And yet… here we are.
This wasn’t an accident. It wasn’t harmless fun. It was ignorance, plain and simple, and it’s disappointing.
If you recognize these men, feel free to let them know how embarrassing this behavior is. Or better yet, let them know sponsorship opportunities are available for next year’s Santa Station, since they clearly found it memorable enough to destroy.
We will continue to choose joy.
We will continue to invest in community.
And we will continue to show up, even when moments like this make it hard.
Be kind. Be better. Beaufort deserves that.
and yes, Merry Christmas… Happy Holidays
