Little Harbour Fire Department hosting Santa at the Melmerby Beach Parking Lot on Sunday, Dec. 19 from 3:30-4:30 p.m.   Everyone is asked to remain in their vehicle, and you will be directed one vehicle at a time to drive up and have a little chat and wave to Santa.  Members of the Little Harbour Fire Department will be there to assist with the event and to hand out some goodies to the children... Just look for the red light in the parking lot to find the action.

Santa is coming to River John Fire Hall on Saturday, Dec. 18th from 2 pm to 4 pm! Due to Covid, it will be a drive-by, with the treat bags being delivered to your car! The driving route will be marked to keep traffic flowing smoothly. Hope to see you there!
