SMITHFIELD – Santa Claus is taking three nights off from his busy schedule this week to visit Smithfield neighborhoods, says Town Manager Randy Rossi.
Leaving his flying sleigh in the North Pole to prepare for his big night, Santa is teaming up with the Smithfield Fire Department to ride along on a firetruck in different parts of town on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday nights.
Santa will arrive in Smithfield neighborhoods each night from 5 to 8:30 p.m. and will travel down every road except dead-ends, Rossi said. With the Fire Department’s help, Rossi said Santa will be able to make an appearance in all Smithfield neighborhoods this week.

FRANKLIN Nary a day goes by that Jenn Conley is not chatting up a storm with Cheryl Melendy as they excitedly work on a special holiday project that got under way a few days after Thanksgiving.
Borne from a simple question posed on the All About Franklin Mass Facebook community, they have been conspiring to collect holiday gifts for seniors living at Benchmark Senior Living at Forge Hill in Franklin knowing that the seniors will be isolated from family and friends during the holidays as the pandemic rages on.
The resulting effort has drawn an outpouring of support in a short time, and the two women, making a best friends compact, are already planning to make it an annual thing.
