The Christmas spirit was alive and well Sunday morning in Center Moriches as the Center Moriches Fire Department's annual Santa Run traveled throughout the streets.

With a "Ho, Ho, Ho" Santa made his way around town on top of the fire truck with its sirens blazing and lights flashing. Firefighters helped by handing out candy canes to children bundled up and waiting to see the Jolly Old St Nick.

A special thanks to all the members of the Center Moriches Fire Department who helped escort Santa around town.

The Center Moriches Fire Department wishes all of you a happy and safe holiday season.
