Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus hopped on the sleigh for the annual ride through Islamorada neighborhoods on Dec. 11. The sleigh, hauled by Chief Terry Abel’s truck, began on Lower Matecumbe. It headed north through various streets where kids and families eagerly awaited Santa’s arrival. Families had the chance to meet with Mrs. Claus and get pictures with Santa. Residents also donated unwrapped toys as part of the annual U.S. Marines Toys for Tots drive. The annual Santa ride is sponsored by the Islamorada Firefighters Benevolent Association and Islamorada Fire Rescue.
