Santa is Coming Town to Help Loma Linda's Children's Hospital
A photo with Santa has been organized along with a Winter Wonderland event that features actual snow.
Familiar holiday figures will be coming to town this weekend to bring cheer – and photo opportunities – to patients, family and friends of Loma Linda University Medical Center.
Today, Santa Claus and firefighters from Loma Linda Fire Department will team up in an event to benefit Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital and Loma Linda Firefighters Association.
People may get their pictures taken with Santa Claus from noon to 4 p.m. at Loma Linda fire station, 11325 Loma Linda Drive. Pictures are $5 for a 4x6 Christmas card picture; and $10 packages are also available.
