Santa Claus will be visiting Steamboat Springs neighborhoods on top of a big red fire truck this year. He’ll be spreading holiday spirit and joy of the season for seven days throughout the Yampa Valley.
“We must be on the good list again as the fire station received a call from Santa Claus asking for assistance in sharing the holiday spirit with Steamboat Springs,” chimed Fire Chief Chuck Cerasoli. “Santa’s reindeer need to rest for the big day, so we’ll put our sleigh to use while he visits all the good boys and girls in the Yampa Valley.”
The Santa tours start each day around 4:30 p.m. through the following neighborhoods. Check steamboatsprings.net/BigRedSleigh for more information.
“We know it’s important to share the holiday spirit as a community and remind all of us to continue to be kind, compassionate and caring,” said Firefighter/Public Education Coordinator Julie Wernig. “A few of our firefighters need some extra holiday points to get on the good list and were eager to help Santa!”
Make the holiday spirit go further and a whole lot brighter by dropping off food or monetary donations at the Mountain Fire Station or Ambulance Barn downtown for LiftUp of Routt County. More than 2,600 people in Routt County go to bed hungry on a daily basis and SSFR is hoping to extinguish a little bit of that this holiday season.
