ALLENTOWN, PA – Santa Claus is making his rounds through Allentown on Saturday, escorted by police officers and firefighters.

Santa will be escorted by our firefighters and police officers to four fire stations across the city on Saturday, December 17 at 12:15 p.m. Santa will be on the lookout for kids along the way and will hand out candy canes.

The first 100 children at each fire station will receive small gifts from Santa, who will meet with them at each station. Each firehouse visit will be limited to 20 minutes in order to allow Santa time to travel to the next fire station. As he concludes his journey, Santa will mingle for a short time at Hibernia Fire Station.


Santa’s schedule:
12-12:20pm at Central Fire Station
12:30-12:50pm at Fearless Fire Station
1-1:20pm at East Side Fire Station
1:30-2:15pm at Hibernia Fire Station

Santa on a Truck is sponsored by Local 302 Allentown International Association of Firefighters, Allentown FOP Queen City Lodge #10, Allentown Police Athletic League and organized in partnership with Cohesion and generous community donations.
