Since 2021 is another year of COVID-19, plus variants, out of an abundance of caution to best protect the children, this year’s children’s Christmas party at the Diligent Fire Company, Centre Avenue in Jim Thorpe, will again be drive-thru only. Please do not get out of your vehicle.

Santa Claus will be there to greet the children and take their Christmas wish letters. However, for the safety of all, there will be no other contact with him. Everyone should be wearing a mask.

The event will take place on Dec 18 from 1 to 2 p.m. Please enter the company parking lot from School Alley located behind the company.
