Today, B-shift had the honor of bringing Santa to his new house on the Square of Hanover. Engine 79-3 went first, and led the Parade. Many floats and organizations followed behind the Engine. Truck 79 and Air 79 ended the Parade. From the bucket of the Truck, Santa got the best view of all the people watching the Parade. Truck 79 then stopped and dropped off Santa to waiting children at his new house. Local 2045 wishes Santa a great Holiday Season at his new home.
The long standing tradition continued again yesterday with Hanover’s favorite “out of towner” being welcomed back to town and this year he arrived in a brand new ride, Hanover Fire Departments brand new Sutphen ladder truck. The new mid-mount Truck 46 carried Santa and a few elves in the bucket and delivered him to his December cabin on center square. Photos submitted for use
