The temperature is likely to be in the 30s and skies are expected to be partly sunny when Santa departs the fire station on Durham Street at noon to travel the streets of the borough, where families are invited to come out and meet him along with his helpers.

As in years past, Santa will attempt to visit every street in Hellertown, however, he may not always be able to do so due to the possibility of emergency calls and other factors.

Residents are encouraged to be patient and to listen for sirens, horns and Christmas music while keeping an eye out for the firetrucks, as there are no specific times when he will be on specific streets.

You may need to venture out and down to the nearest corner to see him.

Below is a list of the streets Santa plans to visit (by neighborhood):

Mountainview Section: Willow Road, Maple Road, Birch Road, Poplar Road, Elm Road, Juniper Road, Constitution Avenue

Southeast Section: Walnut Street, Cedar Road, Tobias Drive, Rentzheimer Drive, Ellen Street, Spruce Street, Henry Street, E. Magnolia Road, Northampton Street, New Street, Durham Street, Delaware Avenue, E. Saucon Street

Northeast Section: New York Avenue, New Jersey Avenue, Detweiler Avenue, Easton Road, E. High Street, Burkhardt Street, Riegel Street, Bleyler Street, Zimpfer Lane, First Avenue, Second Avenue and Third Avenue

Northwest Section: Kichline Avenue, Kieran Avenue, Hess Avenue, Clauser Street, Roth Avenue, Washington Street, Jefferson Street, Whitaker Street, Bachman Street, Furnace Street

Southwest Section: W. Thomas Avenue, W. Chestnut Street, Hampton Avenue, Front Street, W. Saucon Street

Note: All gifts residents would like Santa to deliver while he is making his run MUST be dropped off at the fire station, 502 Durham Street, Hellertown, by the evening of Friday, Dec. 15. No gifts will be accepted after the deadline.

Lower Saucon Fire Rescue will also take Santa on a run through various township neighborhoods this Sunday afternoon. Click here for more information as well as a list of neighborhoods Santa is planning to visit.
