As part of the Holiday Lights Tour, the City of Fitchburg parks a decorated fire truck, ambulance, police car and public works vehicles outside Fire Station 1.
Santa is there from 6 to 8 pm with a special treat, so kids get to meet him and see glowing emergency vehicles up close in one stop.
Parent tip: Come right at 6 pm while it is just getting dark, when the decorated trucks look their brightest and the Santa line is shortest.

A story for the drive home
A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.
A bedtime story after seeing SantaRally Takes the Train is a five-minute rhyming picture book about a corgi’s first ride on a California train, hand-painted in watercolor. $16.99 on Amazon, ages 0 to 8.
