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.
