Santa keeps on truckin’ through Redmond

The Redmond Firefighters’ Union began its annual “Santa in the Neighborhoods” food and toy drive on Dec. 11.
Santa and his volunteer helpers will continue cruising through Redmond neighborhoods on an old-time red fire truck for the next few evenings.
Tonight (Dec. 15) look for Santa and friends in Southeast Redmond, east of Bel-Red Rd.
Dec. 16, they’ll be in the South Education Hill area, from Northeast 90th Street to Northeast 116th Street.
Dec. 19, the destination is North Education Hill, north of Northeast 116th Street.
Dec. 20, Santa is headed to Redmond Ridge and Union Hill.
Look and listen for the festive truck, playing holiday music. Say hi to Santa and his pals, get a candy cane and if you can, donate some food, toys or cash for community members in need.
The Redmond Firefighters’ Union will match up to $500 in collected funds this season.
For more information, call (425) 556-2200.
