Santa To Deliver Gifts To Basking Ridge Kids On Firetruck

BASKING RIDGE, NJ — Santa Claus will be making his way through the streets of Basking Ridge and delivering gifts to children on a firetruck with the help of the Liberty Corner Fire Company.

This is part of a fundraising effort by the all-volunteer organization. These funds are used to purchase new fire fighting equipment and maintain existing equipment and facilities. Only families in the Liberty Corner fire/rescue territory are eligible for this event.

For a $60 donation per every four children in a family, Santa Claus (or a firefighter in lieu of Santa Claus) will arrive at your home via a firetruck to deliver a holiday gift (which you provide, to your child(ren).

The fire truck will arrive at your home with its lights and sirens activated. After the truck comes to a complete stop outside your home, each child is encouraged to come to the fire truck to receive his/her gift from Santa (or a firefighter).

Gifts can be dropped off at the firehouse on Sunday, Dec. 16 from 10 a.m. to noon or Tuesday, Dec. 18 from 7 to 9 p.m.

Gifts will then be delivered by Santa on Saturday, Dec. 22 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The day before the drop off, a link will be emailed to families with a link to the fire company's Live Santa Tracker to track their vehicles.
