Santa is at Geyser Rd Station

I live in a small town. Small enough that when bad things happen it's volunteer firefighters who come to the rescue. A moment ago the very loud siren went off l...etting the volunteers know they were needed. I know in 2015 everyone has a cell phone and you could just send out a text but it's a small town so they still do it the old-fashioned way with the siren bellowing out that you can hear for miles. Every time that siren goes off I think two things- 'thank you' to the volunteers who leave their families to go help strangers and I hope whomever needs the help is ok. It's an odd thing really, to sound an alarm letting the entire town know someone is hurt but in a strange way it's kinda cool. It reminds you of days gone by where, when a fire broke out, all the townspeople showed up with a bucket to form a line and help. No matter how advanced our technology becomes or fancy and expensive the gear is, you still need flesh and blood people who are willing to raise their hand and say, "I'll help". God Bless the volunteers and God Speed to whomever needed that siren two minutes ago.

Change of plans due to the cold temperatures. We are asking people to park and wait in line for a walk through to see Santa. Your child will be able to tell Santa what they want for Christmas from a safe 6 foot distance. Please follow the directions from the firefighter apron arrival to our Geyser Road Station.
