Nikol exit with the aerial ladder: Children's fire brigades celebrate Christmas

On Nicholas Day, December 6th, the children's fire brigades in Northeim experienced a festive Christmas party of a special kind. The Santa Claus, accompanied by elves, was not simply welcomed through the door, but came spectacularly via aerial ladder. This impressive arrival caused bright eyes among the approximately 80 children and caregivers in the fire station. The reason for the event was the annual financial statements of the children's fire brigades, which have gained popularity in recent years in order to win offspring for the fire brigade at an early stage. Michael Wolf, one of the supervisors, emphasized: "We see ourselves as a large community that ends the year together." A Christmas -decorated tree and fragrant delicacies such as currywurst and pastries provided the festive framework. As gifts, the children received multifunctional wipes with the print of the children's fire brigade, supported by a donation from the mayor Simon Hartmann, to enable the celebrations, such as HNA reported .

In Bad Gandersheim, a great Nicholas campaign of the children's and youth fire brigades also took place. A total of 330 children were able to register for Santa Claus gifts here, which significantly exceeded the previous year's figures. Participation was simple: children were able to receive participation certificates in kindergartens and schools and hand them over at several fire brigade houses. Thanks to numerous generous donations from local companies, the fire brigades were able to put together attractive gift packages. This included not only chocolate Nikoläus and mandarins, but also small reflective fire engines, which are accompanied by every gift. The gifts were then ceremoniously distributed on the eve of the Nicholas Day. The campaign enjoyed great popularity and created a contemplative pre-Christmas mood with the children of the city area, such as KFV Northeim reported .
