The Monbulk Fire and Rescue brigade will be driving throughout their township on Christmas Eve — Saturday 24 December — as part of the popular decades-long tradition, and with live tracking from the Monbulk Fire & Rescue (CFA) Facebook page, locals will be able to see where they can spot the CFA tanker, and Santa, as the vehicle travels throughout the streets.
“It’s great to see the looks on the kid’s faces, and it brings a lot of joy,” Monbulk Fire & Rescue Brigade Captain Simon Schroder said.
“There’s a few hundred dollars worth of lollies around town… It’s good to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and give the kids a bit of a moment…they do like the lollies, that’s for sure,” Schroder said.
