There’s some big news from the North Pole this month, with Santa joining Llandilo Rural Fire Brigade (RFB) for the Annual Santa Run, taking place in Jordan Springs and Llandilo.

Santa will be joining our local firefighters on board their fire trucks at Jordan Springs on Saturday 18th December, then at Llandilo on Friday 24th December (Christmas Eve).

Whilst in Jordan Springs, they will visit various parks in both Jordan Springs and Jordan Springs East. As it is a busy time of year for Santa, he can only visit each location for 15 minutes. Christmas Eve’s trip in Llandilo will be around the streets.

“Santa is happy to have photos with anyone and listen to any last-minute present requests. I spoke to him just the other day, and he said he is very excited to take time out of his busy schedule to come and see everyone in Jordan Springs and Llandilo. Santa even hinted that he may have a little present for kids that come and see him” smiled Captain Joshua Gow of Llandilo RFB.

With lockdown restrictions continuing to be eased, Captain Joshua and his brigade can’t wait to spread some Christmas cheer with the man in the big red suit.

“I think I speak on behalf of Llandilo Brigade when I say that we will enjoy spreading the Christmas spirit. Seeing all the kids and some parents come running out to see Santa, you can’t beat their reaction no matter how old you are.

This year will be no different, except we have come out of a lockdown and a lot of the community has been through some tough times. I am hoping that Llandilo RFB and Santa will be able to bring joy to the community and boost the community spirit” Captain Joshua stated.

Llandilo RFB will once again be Santa’s helpers this year and assisting Bunnings Warehouse North Penrith with the family night market on Thursday 9th December. Santa has organised their fire truck to take him to the market for a surprise visit.
