RVFD also says: Please understand that Santa Claus and the RVFD are very busy during the month of December. Our members do our very best to proudly continue this 50+ year tradition for our community. To ensure your best chances to see Santa, we ask that you check the schedule, monitor RVFD Facebook for live updates, listen up for us, and congregate at intersections.
Due to the increased size of our fire apparatus it has become impossible to drive down every street. We also ask that you do not follow Santa in your car in attempts to get his attention; this is very dangerous and distracts the reindeer which may cause an accident.
