Time to give it up for Santa

THIS Christmas, Santa won’t be dashing through the snow in a one horse, open sleigh.
Instead, he’ll be riding in a big yellow fire truck.
The Tinbeerwah Rural Fire Brigade has enlisted the help of Santa for its annual charity drive, collecting non-perishable foods from locals to help the Salvation Army.
The Christmas Drive will be on Wednesday 26 November, and locals are asked to help out the firies by donating long-life foods.
Santa will have lollies for all the kids and the team is hoping to collect as many items as possible to help the many families on the Sunshine Coast doing it tough this year.
The Christmas Drive starts at 6pm from the Tinbeerwah Rural Fire Station on Sunrise Road, Tinbeerwah, and will visit the following roads:
* 6.05pm Pacific View Drive, Tinbeerwah;
* 6.15pm Smiths Road, Tinbeerwah;
* 6.25pm Sunrise Road to corner of Wust Road, Tinbeerwah;
