Santa Claus will be riding through the parks in Cranberry Township from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday on a fire truck.

Santa will return to visit Cranberry Township, not in a winter sleigh, but atop one of the fire company’s fire engines from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday.

The tour will be led by Cranberry Township Fire, Police and EMS crews, who will direct Santa through Community, North Boundary and Graham parks.

Residents are invited to gather at a safe social distance in the park nearest their home to welcome Santa to the township. Santa will not be able to stop for photographs.

The tour will travel from the Route 19 Fire Station to Community Park, North Boundary Park, Graham Park, the Municipal Center and finishing at the First Station.

The celebration will continue from 5 to 9 p.m. with the Holiday Village Market, a new community event at the Municipal Center.

The market is a continuation of a partnership between the township and the Pittsburgh North Regional Chamber.

This free community event encourages the region to shop local and support small businesses. It will feature holiday vendors, food trucks, live music, children’s activities and more. Social distancing will be in place with masks required.
