Santa, Mrs. Claus, and the Grinch just wanted to give a special thank you to all the residents who came out to enjoy the Cruisin With Claus event as well as the Santa Parade! We are so appreciative of our friends from the Rockville Volunteer Fire Department, Rockville City Police Department, and Montgomery County Police Department for ensuring the parade route was safe for Santa and his reindeer and fun for all! If you happened to miss the fun, we thank King Farm neighbor, Sun-Lin Lee, for putting together this great video of the Santa parade!
We would also like to thank everyone for their generous toy donations this year! Hundreds of toys were collected on Sunday and were distributed to children in the Rockville community. Thanks to your donations, many children in Rockville would not have had such a happy holiday without your toy donations. We thank you and appreciate all of you and your kindness.

For those streets not listed, please head to the street from the list above that is closest to your home and wave to Santa as he passes! *Note – this is not the same event as the Santa Run hosted by the fire department earlier this month. This event is organized and hosted by the King Farm Citizens Assembly!
