Hi neighbors,

A little elf recently let me know that Santa plans to visit Fire Station #9 in Douglas Park again this year, and that he’s looking forward to another cruise around the neighborhood to check up on all the neighborhood girls and boys! Starting at 3PM on Saturday, 12/21, Santa will ride through Green Valley, Columbia Heights and Douglas Park for an hour, ending back at the fire station at 4PM.

The route is identical to last year’s. See planned route here:

The following is an estimated timetable of Santa’s ride:
3:00 – Santa leaves FS #9
3:10 – John Robinson Jr. Town square in Green Valley
3:20 – Through Eastern Green Valley near OLQP
3:25 – Columbia Heights
3:35 – 16th St in Douglas Park
3:30 – Barcroft Apartments
3:45 – Quincy by Abingdon
3:50 – 14TH and Oakland
3:55 – Santa returns to FS #9.
(These times are only estimates, and Santa finished 10 min early last year.Β  It will also be 35 degrees, so I expect Santa to be moving.Β  I recommend coming out early to make sure you see him!)
Upon returning to the station, Santa *may* have some time to meet with kids provided he and the fire crew are not called upon.

As a reminder, the members of ACFD Station #9 are excited to share their holiday cheer, so please, let’s show them how much we appreciate them! If you can, spread the word to any local listservs, message groups or social media pages you can to ensure a big turnout for both Santa and our neighborhood protectors!

Thanks,

Dan
