Today the Alpha's received a special call mutual aid assignment.  The Big Guy from the North Pole requested that the Alpha Fire Co. escort him around town this evening.  A day was spent by members preparing the apparatus for the special event.  Units with Santa on board left the station for a tour around the Centre Region giving the kids a special chance to see Santa before he made his stop in the area later in the night to deliver their gifts.

The Alpha's teamed up with QWiK Rock to provide the area with continual updates as to Santa's whereabouts.

Special Thanks to McLanahan's and Kohl's for their donations to make this event successful.
