Jolly Old Saint Nicholas will return to the Christmas Cottage at Federal Hill Commons on Saturday, Dec. 7. The Christmas Cottage is the city-run Santa House, which has been moved from the amphitheater stage to next to the Ice Plaza this year. Children are invited to visit Santa to tell him what they'd like for Christmas every weekend throughout December.

Santa also will make appearances during Noblesville Schools' Parent Teacher Organizations Nights at the Ice Plaza on Monday, Dec. 9 (Stony Creek Elementary) and Tuesday, Dec. 17 (Hinkle Creek Elementary).

"We are excited to have Santa return to Federal Hill Commons to visit with area children and enjoy the fun holiday atmosphere with ice skating nearby," said Noblesville Parks & Recreation Director Brandon Bennett. "The Christmas Cottage offers families a unique private visit with Santa and, as always, Santa is free to visit and parents are welcome to bring a camera to capture memories."

The Noblesville Fire Department is preparing for its final week of collecting donations for this year's Christmas Food and Toy Drive, which will take place on Saturday, December 14.

"We are grateful to those that have already contributed. The community has responded as it does every year to ensure local families have a joyous holiday season. While we believe we have enough toys for the 110 less-fortunate families in Noblesville, we are in need of monetary donations, canned goods and food items," NFD Assistant Chief Matt Mitchell said.

The fire department is accepting canned goods, non-perishable food items, monetary donations (checks are preferred – made payable to the Noblesville Fire Department Legacy Fund), and new, unwrapped toys through Monday, December 10. Donations may be dropped off at any of the Noblesville Fire Stations or at Noblesville City Hall, 16 South 10th Street.

2019 marks the 42nd anniversary since the program started. The fire department has partnered with Kroger for food needs and Meijer for toys. For more information, contact the Noblesville Fire Department at 776-6336.
