Santa's Coming To Radnor Early On Dec 14

RADNOR TOWNSHIP, PA – It may be a little early to start using the "C" word, as we haven't even celebrated Thanksgiving yet. But Radnor Township is gearing up for its annual Christmas event where Santa makes rounds in Radnor to give kids gifts a bit earlier than Dec. 25.

Those looking to give kids a taste of Christmas in early December can do so through the Santa's Delivery program.

If you have kids in Radnor you'd like to treat early, you can drop off gifts Saturday, Nov. 30 between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. at the Radnor Township Building, 301 Iven Ave., Wayne. No gifts are to be dropped off after Nov. 30, the township said.

Those making donations are to drop off one small, shoe box-sized gift per child. Recipient names must be printed clearly on the outside of each gift.

In addition to their own presents, residents who participate in Santa's Delivery are asked to register an unwrapped gift for a child in need in addition to their own through Toys For Tots.

Unwrapped Gifts can be dropped of at the Radnor Township Building from through Dec. 16.

Volunteers are need to help with the gift drop off day. Interested volunteers should contact Tracey Krum, Recreation Program Coordinator, at (610) 688-5600, extension 136 or tkrum@radnor.org.

Santa – with the help of Radnor Police Department, Bryn Mawr Fire Company, other local fire companies, Citizens Police Academy, and Radnor Township employees – will deliver gifts on Saturday, Dec. 14. The township said delivery times cannot be predetermined due to the size of the event.

Deliveries are expected to begin at about 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 14.

When you hear sirens approaching your home around that time on that day, send the kids out to the driveway so Santa can give them their early Christmas gift.

The program is open to Radnor Township residents only.
