Santa Claus Is Coming To Town! Schooley's Mtn. Fire Co. To Escort Old St. Nick

Since you’ll be sleeping when Santa comes into your home sometime between nightfall and the morning hours of Christmas Day, old St. Nick will prove elusive yet again.

But wait, the Schooley’s Mountain Fire Company is going to help you meet Santa the week before the big day!

On Saturday, Dec. 19, Santa Claus will make a trip down from the North Pole to ride through parts of Long Valley with fire truck escort.

Santa and his elves will hit the Long Valley roads at 10 a.m. and weave through the following streets and neighborhoods, according to the fire department:

Gentry estates, Middlesworth Farm, Cobblestone and Glen Ridge, and William Way. They’ll also travel through Rock Road, Quail Run, Winay Terrace, Ann Road and Nestlingwood. They’ll travel along Flocktown Road to Walnut and Hemlock, then across Naughright to Windswept, Cambridge, Salisbury and Warwick estates, Thomas Farm and Arbor Way. Santa and his escorts will head along Cindy Lane and Paula Drive to Arrowhead. They will visit Janet Drive, Jackie Drive, Kim Lane, Manor Hill and Yorkshire Estates. From there the team will “fly” to Brittany Hills, Peachtree Village and Hastings Square.

Santa and the elves will blow the sirens and horns as they approach each road, hand out candy canes and fire prevention material to all who greet him.
