Thursday at the Tower: Flying Santa

William H. Wincapaw… The Flying Santa Claus! You know Dasher and Dancer, and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid, and Donner and Blitzen. But do you recall William Wincapaw, the most famous New England Lighthouse Santa’s helper of all. Join Ponce Inlet Lighthouse Director of Operations Mike Bennett, as he tells the story of William Wincapaw, an air service delivery man, who brought joy to so many remote lighthouse families throughout the northeast dressed as Santa Clause beginning in 1929. This wonderful humanitarian tradition continues on to this day, bringing hope and joy during the festive season.
