When my Mother passed away on Christmas evening 1983, I lost my Christmas spirit and joy. Over the past 33 years, I have regained a small portion of it. I am hoping my trip to The National Christmas Center in a few months will help me heal and help me remember and cherish how magical my childhood Christmas' were.

We are heartbroken to learn that the Nat'l. Christmas Center will be closing. We have been there 2-3 times a year since you opened and have told everyone we know about it, brought friends and family with us, and brought a couple of fundraiser bus trips there. Everyone has loved it. We have chatted with Jim on several occasions and will miss being able to get into the Christmas spirit anytime we feel the need from Spring thru the holidays. We sincerely hope someone will come along who can take over and keep the place open so we can continue to visit for many years to come. If there is any way fans can help, please post on your website. We would be happy to help in any way we can. Thank you for all the memories and all the enjoyment over the years!

We are deeply saddened to hear that you are closing. We visit the area yearly and have brought countless family and friends to experience the joy and wonder of The National Christmas Center. Each and every one has told us it was the highlight of their trip. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for so many wonderful memories. God bless!

I was so disheartened when I heard of the Christmas Center closing. A annual visit to the center,and photos with Santa, have been a family tradition since my kids we're toddlers, now teens/tweens. And they still love our tradition. We'll have to make this year's visit an extra special one. We will miss you guys!

I just learned that you will be closing after this season. So very sad about this! I have made many trips there sharing your love for Christmas with my friends and family, especially your FIRST CHRISTMAS. The walk back through time to the night Christ was born is my favorite part. Truly wish this was not happening...so sad at this news. Thank you so much for your dedication to the "Season of Miracles".
