So make sure you've been good and watch out for the flashing lights and sirens.

For safety reasons, we encourage everyone to stay away from the side of the road when you see and hear the lights and sirens until we come to a complete stop. We may actually be responding to an emergency. We also recommend that you turn on your porch lights (flash them when we approach) to let us know you have children who wish to see Santa and get a treat. We'll be watching, even if you don't have lights, but it does help us to locate you.

TRAFFIC ADVISORY! When stopping for Santa to deliver treats, we WILL be positioning our apparatus to temporarily close the road to traffic movement for the safety of the children and our members. For this reason, in certain high traffic areas, we may take a little longer to get to you so that backed-up traffic can pass.

For questions or concerns, call the fire station.
