Starting in just under a week, Cabin John Park VFD members will be taking Santa on his annual journey through neighborhoods that are served by the department!
Once again, we are asking neighbors that come out to see Santa donate a toy or two to help benefit children who for various reasons would not otherwise get a visit from Santa. Toys should be unwrapped, appropriate for any age from infant to pre-teen. In years past, local community members have made our trip to the National Center for Children and Families memorable for families with small children that are unable to be home for the holidays.
If you are unable to donate a toy directly to Santa during his visits, you may also drop them off at Fire Station #10 located at 8001 River Rd in Bethesda. Any excess toys are brought to Washington, D.C. to assist with the U.S. Marine Corps’s “Toys For Tots” and are also used at the National Children’s Medical Center in the district.
Here is a schedule of the neighborhoods Santa is planning to visit. Please note that these are subject to change due to weather and other uncontrollable factors such as emergency response needed in the community:
