Have breakfast with Santa, support local firefighters

Capital City Fire Auxiliary will host its annual “Breakfast with Santa” pancake feed fundraiser on Saturday, Dec. 5.

The breakfast will be held 8:30-11 a.m. at Thunder Mountain High School.

For $10, guests can eat all the pancakes they want. Santa will be arriving by fire truck at 9 a.m. and will then be available for pictures with children.

Proceeds go to the auxiliary, a nonprofit whose mission is to support local firefighters with Capital City Fire/Rescue and to give back to the community. This year marks the third time they’ve held the “Breakfast with Santa” fundraiser.

Tickets will be sold at the door or can be purchased in advance at the downtown or Valley fire station. For more information, contact CCFR Administrative Officer Victoria Godkin at Victoria.Godkin@juneau.org or 586-0262.
