Fire Brigade brings good cheer across city

Santa, the Grinch and a group of elves made the rounds in Sequim recently with Santa’s Toy and Food Fire Brigade.

Clallam County Fire District 3 firefighters and volunteers traveled with an antique fire truck and school bus playing Christmas songs and handing out candy canes Dec. 4-7.

They sought new toys and monetary donations for Sequim Community Aid’s Toys for Sequim Kids held Dec. 12 and monetary and food donations for Sequim Food Bank.
