Santa Claus is Coming to Matawan

Santa Claus is making a list and checking it twice before he cruises through Matawan to say Merry Christmas to local children.

The Matawan First Aid Squad will tow Mr. Claus on his sleigh from Monday, Dec. 10 to Thursday, Dec. 13, according to elves at the North Pole. Mr. Claus plans to leave the Matawan First Aid Squad each evening promptly at 6 p.m.

A senior elf on Mr Claus' staff was kind enough to share his sleigh riding schedule with Patch:
