It's National Fire Prevention Week! This Saturday, Oct. 15, stop by an open house at the Vienna Volunteer Fire Department, 400 Center St S. Learn about fire safety all day from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Did we mention the moon bounce and firetrucks? More: vpw.org.

Ho Ho Ho! Santa Runs are almost here! My schedule is now up on VVFD's website. vvfd.org/santa.html Have you seen the new ornament? Also available on VVFD's website! vvfd.org/store.html

Ornaments are here! We are at Cafe Amouri this morning for ornament pickup or purcahse. Spend a chili Saturday morning with a warm cup and ornament for your tree, and get ready for Santa coming soon! vvfd.org/pickup.html

Santa Runs are starting! Tonight is Northeast, east of Beulah. Listen for the sirens, then come out to see Santa! vvfd.org/santa.html

Good news and bad news. Santa is in good shape, however Santa's clutch on the '46 Maxim is done for the season. Tonight's Santa Run is cancelled. Hope to reschedule with our reserve fire engine. Standby for additional information

Friends of Vienna VFD Santa, it is with a heavy heart that we must cancel Santa Runs for the remainder of this year. With Santa's favorite sleigh out of service, we simply do not have a good alternative. We will keep you updated on the status of the antique's health. Until next year!

No word yet on a diagnosis, but suspect something between the clutch and transmission. Removing the trans for closer inspection. We'll keep you updated! Until then, consider an ornament as a last minute gift! Available at Karins Florist, Bards Books, and vvfd.org/store.html
