Every year Santa trades in his reindeer for a fire engine so he can visit neighborhoods all across SoYoCo! To ensure your family doesn't miss this annual tradition we've compiled a list of dates and times just for you. Please keep the following in mind when Santa and the fire truck visit your neighborhood:
1. Do not approach the fire truck! We know it's so hard to contain your excitement when you see the Big guy but please stay on the sidewalk, grass or driveway.
2. While driving Santa around to see all the good little girls and boys is a favorite activity for many of our local fire departments their main priority is to keep our community safe, so please keep in mind weather and emergencies may cause delays.
3. Updates on Santa's journey through town be sure to like and follow your local fire department's FB page.
