The EastIdahoNews.com team is busy helping a local Secret Santa give $1 million to deserving people in eastern Idaho this holiday season.
Peter gives, gives, gives and never expects anything in return. He spends his time helping the kids in the West Jefferson School District. He has over 20 years in the Grid Kid football, junior high wrestling, high school wrestling and club wrestling programs.
He does not make a lot of money for himself, but he is always finding ways to help the kids accomplish their dreams.
Peter is always having car trouble because the vehicles he can afford on a limited budget have many mechanical problems. They often break down and he has to walk to get places.
Secret Santa asked the East Idaho News elves if we could track Peter down and drop off an early Christmas gift. We found him before wrestling practice. Check out the surprise in the video player above!

His smile at the end says it all
Yes, it definitely did!!
You’re an angel Nate. 🤍🎄
Exactly. He probably doesn’t smile that often. Stoic and unemotional.
I came to say that too, I dont think it set in until that car started and he was behind the wheel
That’s when he realized it wasn’t a dream ❤
@@truecrimenut6696AND SECRET SANTA 🎅!!!
His face at first, he wasn't trusting what was going on. His smiling after starting the car, priceless! Thank you Secret Santa for sharing kindness for us all to see!
Secret Santa lifted the world off that man’s shoulders ❤
Peter definitely has a hardened shell, but who are we to judge. As soon as he felt the warmth and compassion towards him, he melted like a snowman. God is Good Peter!
The excitement of the kids had me smiling really big. They obviously appreciate Peter.
Love seeing Peter’s tough exterior melt away with this gift of love! His dedication to helping in youth sports is so inspiring.
Thank You Secret Santa!❤️🙏🏻🎅🏻
Iron marshmallow all the way. So glad he got a car.
@@5thdimension625 I unequivocally agree! 🥰
Pure sign of shock.. That is one man who is clearly not used to people recognizing him or helping him. good for secret Santa. !
Yay, I'm happy for Peter!! I was so sad when he responded to Nate with "sadly, yes" when Nate asked if he was Peter.
Brighter days ahead, good man!!!
Thank you, Secret Santa, for helping out this kind soul!!
Hope Peter can feel the gratitude from his community (now the world)❤️
@loveforeignaccents
I think he said that because he doesn't like to be in the spotlight. (When he is coaching, he is the authority, true, but he can feel still that it's the kids highlighted, not him.) That's something people in my country could say in that kind of situation and nobody would bat an eye, maybe chuckle at maximum.
@@magicofshootingstar5825 That's the way I took it, too. Some people just feel uncomfortable in the spotlight and/or with being publicly praised for what they do.
I think he thought Nate was there about his extended car warranty.
😄
💕
That was cute! Those kids will always remember that!!
The Quiet Man is a Good Man.
I love that the kids were so excited for Coach. His steps to get outside were quick and once he realized this was the real deal when the car started, his big smile said it all. Thank you, Secret Santa!!!
Peter seems a very humble chap. Well deserved after years of dedication helping kids.
Sometimes the tireless giver, get something in return. My own problems seem so small and insignificant in comparison. Thanks for giving me perspective nate and helpers.
Wow, that moment he sat in the car started it up and realised it was real... then that smile came... wonderful.... great bunch of kids too... they clearly like Peter. Ss and Nate coming up with the gifts as usual.
So lovely to see a selfless person, who gives so much, be rewarded with this needed gift. And. So lovely you that you have your secret santa to give to those people each year. Happy Christmas to Secret Santa 🎅
Enjoy your new car Peter. With all you have done for the youth sports, you truly deserve it! Thanks Secret Santa, Nate, and helpers. Merry Christmas to all! 🎅🎄🎀
A deserving Humble man
I don’t think he really knows the impact he’s had over 29 years of helping kids. I hope they see this and reach out to congratulate him. Surprised and stunned I’m sure but the smile at the end was great. Thank you Secret Santa ❤❤❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Cracked a little smile when the car started. Funny to see the different reactions but I’m sure he deserves a reward for all those years helping the community.
Think he was in disbelief. Lol. Ended with a beautiful smile. Merry Christmas Peter!
Congratulations Peter 🎉‼️ I’m so glad you won’t have to walk in the snow this Winter 🥶. Thank you for everything you do for the children!
Thank you so much Secret Santa 🎅🏼, Nate 🧑🎄 and the EIN elves 🫶🏼!! Together you are spreading Joy to an entire community ‼️🎄
❤ Peter you deserved your gift. Thank you for doing a job many adults can't.. loving our children.
Secret Santa, I don’t know if you even read the comments but I wanted to thank you for these videos! I struggle A LOT with depression and anxiety. It gets worse a lot of times over the holidays! These videos are a bright spot in my dad! Thank you for all you do for others! The ripple effect is amazing! It touches far more than the recipients only! May your acts of kindness bless you ten fold!
Wishing you Peace. Sending you a cyber hug❤️
Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. You woke up. You have your senses . Think on what you have and can do.
@@brianbickle7395....That's lovely and so true.
@@brianbickle7395Amen❤
Life in Jesus can help with anxiety as can being thankful.
Peter has such a beautiful smile!
Keep smiling Peter, it looks good on you. Thanks Secret Santa, Nate and EIN Crew❤❤🇬🇭🇬🇭
Nice Surprise! Peter deserves it, thank you Secret Santa ❤
Ho-ho-ho… Peter thought he was getting punked… until the car started and then he realized it was real! That was fun! 👏🏻🎄🎁🎉🎆
Secret Santa, Nate, and Elves… you have the best list❣️
Thank you Secret Santa! This was a well-deserved car! Wow, almost 30 years helping kids. I cant imagine walking so much in that cold idaho weather. Enjoy your reliable car, Coach!!! You definitely deserve it.
I love when kiddos adore and love their teacher or coach to that matter..and the selfless act that he contributed to the school only for the students to learn..he deserves it..
He looked pretty amped up when he started his car 🚙😎nice guy
His smile at the end was priceless ❤❤❤❤❤🌲⛄❄️
Absolutely brilliant! Thank you, Secret Santa! ❤❤❤
👏
Love Secret Santa and Nate and all of the helpers!
That's alot of years to dedicate to all of the kids. Way to go Peter!
Not used to a lot of attention I would say. But anyway all the best Peter...a bright new year coming soon.
A shy guy caught in the headlights but surely deserving of his gifts! Much love & happiness Peter, I hope you have a great time in your new car 🚗 💙 Tysm Secret Santa! Btw, on a funny note, I thought that high school was a store we have here called "Lowe's." It's really exactly like Home Depot & I really couldn't understand why Secret Santa wanted to stop to get something at the hardware store, but alas, it was their high school!! I've never been to Idaho, so, Hello 👋🏻 & ty for being the home to Nate & company, doing all this selfless work on behalf of Secret Santa 🤶 🧑🎄 ❤❤❤
Awww a humble guy! Merry Christmas Peter!
He is in great shape and must be in his late 40s.
Good job Nate and thanks to Secret Santa.
"God bless us evrryone" everyone."
You can tell how beloved he is with these students. They're so excited for him. Marks a good man and teacher. Very much deserved gift.
When you don’t get good surprises is difficult to express emotions. But this gift 🎁 had the magic of happiness. Thank you Secret Santa
Peter was a great choice. The youth need role models like him!
So deserving Secret Santa, thank you ♥️ Peter enjoy, well deserved ❤
Merry Christmas back at ya, wrestling team!! Yay, for Secret Santa, Nate and his crew, East Idaho News, and Peter!!! A very Merry Christmas to everyone, and Coach...enjoy your brand new car!!
Awweeeeee, you can tell he had so much support....... the group of people cheering him on at the end was amazing! You can tell everyone was genuinely happy for him and that he deserved this. Thank you Peter for helping mold our young kids, you have earned this gift and then some!!! He was very humble and I saw his smile peek through in the end! :) THANK YOU SECRET SANTA!!!!!
Nice job Santa! The smile on his face when he started the car said it all , lol
It looks like at first he thought it was a prank, but the smile at the end says alot. 😊😊
Congratulations from a guy in the Houston area that watches these all the time. I could tell he was "WTF scam is this?" until the car started. Nice smile when he realized.
People who are givers are hard pressed to be receivers but he did that really well. Very happy for him
What a great guy. Thank you, Secret Santa ❤.
Merry Christmas, I love Secret Santa! Putting a lovely smile on someone's face.
He deserve it ❤
It is so hard being without a car and having to rely on other people for transportation! I know that all too well! Thank you SS for allowing this man to have his dignity and life back! It really does change your life when you get a car!
So wonderful. The kids were so excited for him too. Wonderful man. Thank you santa Nate and EIN. Merry christmas to all.🎅🌲⛄

Loved the enthusiasm of the team. Congratulations to Peter.
Love that his whole team was there to cheer him on. ❤🎉 love it from Michigan.
Yes, that smile says it all. Merry Christmas sir. Thank you Secret Santa, Nate and team. Merry Christmas.
That's how you do it, when you have the money - you should share the wealth and to give a gift like that it means so much and can help in so many ways. You even made a grumpy coach smile with happiness 😃. I know deep down inside he really appreciates this gift beyond what he is able to say. Great work Secret Santa and I think the kids and Peter really Thank you!
How wonderful! So many smiles!
There is no greater pleasure then working kids you can tell just how much love and respect for him by how they cheered when Nate gave him the car !!

Those who give and give are not used to be on the receiving end - this is a life changing moment for Peter that will have great, positive ripple effects for years to come. May the blessings continue to flow to Peter. Thank you Secret Santa! Watching from Canada's west coast.
Oh my goodness, loved this Secret Santa surprise! Nothing like a dedicated coach and a room full of teen boys to bring on the Exciting Christmas spirit. Enjoy your new car! You deserve a nice set of wheels!
Praise God
Thank you Secret Santa!!!
Thank you Secret Santa. You bring so much joy to all of us watching all over the country as does Nate and his team. I experienced a devastating loss a couple of months ago and what brings me such happiness and joy this holiday season (as in the past) is watching EIN's Secret Santa. Merry Christmas to you Secret Santa....you are much loved and appreciated!
He was really on guard in the beginning…but another commenter was spot on when they said his smile at the end says it all. I agree.
Having studied Ancient Greek Histtory and Mythology, it is wonderful to see Wresling being taught and loved. Now to Peter, such a well deserved gift for someone who brings a passion and longevity to what he loves. Merry Christmas.
I agree, very sad to hear him say" Sadly yes" Hope this is just one of the many good things that happens to him. Wishing him the best, and going to pray for hum😊
WOW 29 years of dedication to the youth in this community! What a great guy! Way to go Secret Santa, Nate, and East Idaho News! You made him smile and brought joy to his life! 🎄🎅🎄🎅
Peter needed those wheels, thank you Secret Santa you made his year I bet. Bless you sir, there are many people who over the years have been blessed by you, now your turn God bless you sir!
Peter sounds like an absolute legend! Keep working hard for kids sports, your community sees you mate!

❤❤❤
He does so much more than they were able to share in a short amount of Time!
When his mom was alive, she would give the neighbor children Cadbury eggs for Easter. She passed away many years ago, and he has carried on this tradition. We have moved several times, and each Easter Day, we find a sack of Cadbury eggs hanging from our from door handle. 🥰
Secret Santa you are the best to give this man a new car! You smiled Peter!❤️🇨🇦❤️
So chocked and humbled. Good things happens to good people
These people serving their communities !
Wonderful people !
Love the support of his kids, wonderful ❤️
I live outside of Boston Massachusetts I'm 49 married. With 2 teens I've watched dozens of your videos and it gives me hope that there is people getting what they deserve........
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays Peter🎄🎄🎄 God bless you and sending you warm aloha from Hilo, Hawaiʻi✨✨✨
Aww I love Peter’s skeptical look , this brings tears of joy 😁
Acts of kindness ... sometimes are Lifesaving. Thanks Secret Santa!
These Secret Santa's have blessed me to watch all Christmas Season.
Secret Santa I think you have reached many more than you know.

Peter had about as much enthusiasm as a wet paper bag about getting a new car and the check. 😂😊 Congratulations Peter! 🎄
That was a great thing for Peter. God bless you Secret Santa.
