The lack of a Christmas parade in Hopkinsville this year isn’t stopping Santa from coming to town this Sunday, along multiple routes through Hopkinsville.
According to a news release, in a partnership between Hopkinsville Parks and Recreation, Hopkinsville Fire Department and Hopkinsville Police Department, Santa will travel on three separate routes at once, starting at 1 p.m. on Sunday. A turn-by-turn list of truck routes will be available on the official Santa Claus is Comin’ to Hoptown Facebook event page.
Each firetruck carrying Santa will be followed by an HPD cruiser that will safely hand out goody bags to children, who can watch as he goes by as Santa will remain on the truck during all neighborhood stops to achieve good social distancing.
Santa Claus is comin’ to Hoptown via a fire truck to visit neighborhood families Sunday.
