Santa Claus and his many helpful elves came to Davenport for Hometown Christmas Saturday, Nov. 26.
DAVENPORT-- Saturday night was an eventful evening at Pioneer Plaza as Hometown Christmas made a return for the first time in three years. Carols were sung, the tree was lit and hearty food was consumed.
But the highlight of the evening was when Santa Claus arrived at the plaza in the town fire truck. Children's eyes grew wide as Santa descended from the truck. Santa was welcomed by all the children who surrounded Him with hugs and big smiles.
