Just letting all the girls and boys (young and old) know that Santa will be coming around Helensburgh and Stanwell Tops on Saturday, 19 December on Fire + Rescue 325 Station’s big red Fire Engine, starting about 9am from the Fire Station in Walker St. We will be handing out pre-packed Lollies and being Covid-19 aware.

We ask that you all obey social-distancing rules, and that you observe our safety requirements in the process of our Lolly Run. By that we mean, you all stay on the footpath on the left-hand side of the Fire Engine, which is the side Santa will be on. 

We will also have Warwick Erwin’s safety van with flashing lights to remind other vehicles of oncoming danger, similar to local school buses.

Please do not chase after the Fire Engine to try and get more lollies as you will be disappointed in this venture. We only give out lollies to the children who stand still and who are on the footpaths. 

There will be plenty of lollies and no one will miss out if you do the right thing. 

We would like to thank Kirrily Sloane for organising the lolly donations from The Tradies and to our Local Lions Club, who have been long-time sponsors of the Santa Run.

We hope you all have a very happy and safe Christmas and a prosperous New Year. Be both Covid-19 and fire-safe over the coming holiday period and may the only fire you have to deal with be in your heart and not in your house.

Season’s greetings to you all, from Station 325 Fire + Rescue NSW. – Roslyn Thomas, acting captain, 325 Station Helensburgh
