Operation Santa Claus

Fri, December 20, 2024 by Tom Katz

The 2024 edition of Operation Santa Claus has been a success with a record 11 families being provided Christmas gifts and groceries thanks to our generous donors and the work of Rock Falls Police and Rock Falls Fire staff and their families.

On Monday, December 23rd , members of the Rock Falls Police and Fire Departments will escort Santa Claus on his route as he delivers the gifts to the families.

Operation Santa Claus is a Rock Falls Police tradition started in the 1990’s and is happily carried on by the new generation of officers, civilian employees and other responders.
