Since 2005, the Seminole Trail Volunteer Fire Department has joined forces with the North Pole to show Santa Claus around the neighborhoods it serves. This year, starting Tuesday December 20th, they will bring Santa to 24 neighborhoods in Albemarle County. There will be candy for the children.

New for this year will be a food drive. Residents wishing to contribute to the food drive are asked to gather at major intersections in their neighborhood to make their non-perishable food donation. Food items can also be dropped off at the STVFD station on Berkmar Drive.
