See Santa In Century This Morning
December 18, 2010
Children in the Century and Byrneville areas will have the opportunity to see Santa this morning, courtesy of the Century Volunteer Fire Department.
Santa’s helpers at the Century VFD submitted the following information and schedule:
Century Volunteer Fire Department will be doing their annual Santa Run on Saturday, December 18 starting at approximately 8:30 a.m. Santa will be escorted around the town atop a fire truck along with his sleigh and reindeer.
Route will be as follows:
- Leaving Century Firehouse Substation on Highway 4 and travel north on Killam Road. Will then make a left and head west towards our first stop which will be at the Byrneville Community Center. Santa’s time is valuable so this stop will only be for 30 minutes!
- Then Jolly Ole St .Nick will travel east on Highway 4 towards Century city limits, then north on Highway 29 to his second stop which will be in the parking lot at Whataburger. Again we have to keep the reindeer moving so this stop will only be for 30 minutes also!
- Then we will head north on Highway 29 to the Dollar General Store where Santa will have his last stop for all the kids. By now it will be about time for Santa to head back to the North Pole to get ready for Christmas Day so this last stop will only be for 30 minutes!
- The truck with Santa atop will then head back south on Highway 29 to the southern town limits which will conclude the run3.
- Any kids along any of these routes will get candy tossed to them as well as any at one of our three stops.
Century Volunteer Fire Department would like to remind parents of children to be safe if you will be along the roadways of the route. Santa will make every attempt to toss the candy in your yard, but if some falls in the road let an adult grab it for you.
Merry Christmas
Century Volunteer Fire Department

Will Santa get off the truck to visit with the kids or will he be on the truck the whole time? We didn’t know about him being at the library yesterday, so I would like another opportunity to have my son’s picture taken with Santa.
