Santa teams with local firefighters to spread Christmas joy to children at AdventHealth

A surprise visit last week helped lift the spirits of some kids who need to spend time in AdventHealth for Children.

First responders teamed up with Santa at the special event.

They rappelled down the outside of a building to bring the children some holiday cheer right through the windows of their rooms.

This marked the seventh year of the holiday tradition.
