Safety
Here are a few safety measures you’re encouraged to follow as Santa rides through the neighborhoods:
- Santa encourages everyone to gather with their own household.
- Be sure to stay within your house and front yard.
- Do not run into the streets.
Note that Santa’s sleigh travels through the incorporated borders of the City of San Gabriel. For ease of travel, Santa’s sleigh may travel through an unincorporated section of San Gabriel County in order to return to his route. Santa’s visits may be canceled if weather conditions impede his travel.
