Santa comes to Rochester with help from local firefighters

Dec 5, 2021

ROCHESTER — Ho, ho, ho!

Santa and Mrs. Claus left their sleigh at home on Sunday, Dec. 5, instead hitching a ride with the Rochester Fire Department who toured them through town to the delight of local children.

The jolly couple waved to Rochester residents from the bucket of a ladder truck and tossed candy canes to families waiting patiently along their route.

Santa’s location was broadcasted live online by the Fire Department to make it easier for everyone to know when he would be passing by.
