Santa will be visiting a community within Dallas County this Saturday (remember if an event only lasts one day of the weekend, then just say that day. Otherwise if we start a story about the weekend, we give the impression that a program lasts throughout the weekend when it doesn’t).

The Adel Fire Station is welcoming residents to come take pictures and eat pancakes with Santa Claus this Saturday. Fire Captain Jim Uthe tells Raccoon Valley Radio that the Adel Fire Department partners with the Scout Troop 152 to serve breakfast to people. He reveals how the partnership began.

“We just wanted to cooperate with the community. The scouts are a good group, we wanted to support them, and we thought by having a breakfast, it would also help support the fire department, so it’s kind of a win-win for everybody.”

Uthe believes the event is going on nine years and will feature a free-will donation to raise money for the fire department and the local scout troop. The Pictures and Pancakes with Santa is happening Saturday morning from 7-11am at the Adel Fire Station, 102 S. 10th Street.
