Santa Clause Comes To Town
Hanover Fire Department B-Shift had the honor of bringing the man of the year himself, Santa Clause back to town after a whole year of him living at his home at the North Pole. The annual tradition happens every year the day after Thanksgiving, known as Black Friday. A small parade of local businesses floats, high school marching band and of course the fire department and Santa himself. Santa will spend the next few weeks making his list of local children who stop by his house on the square.
