Police officers and firefighters from throughout the area escorted Santa Claus to Children's Hospital Central California as he visited with patients. This marks the 27th year

The group was joined by Fresno Grizzlies mascot, Parker, as they sang carols and distributed presents and holiday cheer to patients. More than 50 elves from area Target stores also joined in on the festivities as they greeted patients, families and guests. Target donated all of the gifts given to patients.
