The paid-call firefighters from Hall 6 (Murrayville) will be helping Santa hand out candy and collect donations on Saturday, Dec. 23 in the annual Candy Cane Run.

They’ll be singing Christmas songs as they walk down 223 Street, south of Fraser Highway, towards Old Yale Road and Monahan Court.

Santa and the firefighters will also be visiting neighbourhoods between 214 Street and 50 Avenue, and many townhouse complexes, including Murrayville Glen, Winchester, Murray’s Landing and Kinsmen Country Village.

Donations of non-perishable food items will be graciously accepted, and will go to the Langley Food Bank.
