Bend Fire Santa Express in Southeast Bend

December 4 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Santa is trading in his sleigh for a fire engine! Bring your donations to the Santa Express!

The Bend Fire Santa Express is gearing up for another fun year visiting local neighborhoods to collect food, clothing and toys in support of The Salvation Army. On Wed. Dec. 4 Santa will be coming through the Foxborough, Larkspur and Sun Meadow neighborhoods in southeast Bend.

The Santa Express will begin at the corner of Goldenrod Lane and Brosterhous Road at 6 p.m. and slowly walk the route. Routes can be found at bendoregon.gov/Fire. Meet Santa and the crews along the route to provide a donation! Anything and everything helps – even one can of food or a small toy will go a long way to providing a good dinner and a nice gift on Christmas.

Need ideas? Here are current needs provided by The Salvation Army:

  • Kids (all ages) winter coats
  • Teen and Pre-Teen Christmas gifts (t-shirts, sweatshirts, bath/body products, gift cards, sports supplies, etc.)

Alternative Donation Drop-off

If you miss the Santa Express but would still like to provide donations, stop by any of the Bend Fire stations or The Salvation Army (515 NE Dekalb Ave.) and place any of your non-perishable foods, new toys or clothing in our collection bins now through Dec. 13!
