Santa Begins His Holiday Tour Through Middletown Neighborhoods
Middletown firefighters will help Santa Claus visit each neighborhood in the town before Christmas.
MIDDLETOWN, RI — Santa’s rounds through Middletown were back on track Tuesday night after even Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer could not light his way through Monday night's storm. Starting Tuesday, and running through Dec. 13, Middletown Firefighters Local 1933 will be assisting the big man from the North Pole to neighborhoods all over the town.
Santa's off-duty elves will be helping Santa distribute candy canes to each neighborhood until all are visited before Christmas. Any nights that have to be rescheduled — such as Monday — will be rescheduled at the end of the travels.
A Santa tracker will be provided each night on the Middletown Fire Facebook page for residents to follow and see when Santa will be near them. A working schedule of Santa's stops can be found here.
