Santa Claus and Monster Trucks

This just in from the City of Tacoma’s Roxanne Murphy:

Some might say that Santa Claus and life-size monster trucks have very little in common, but Tacoma’s Portland Avenue Business Association disagrees with that notion.

This weekend they’re hosting a Santa’s Monster Truck event from noon to 3 p.m. on Dec. 2 in the Key Bank parking lot at the corner of 72nd and Portland Avenue where the young and the young-at-heart will have an opportunity to get their picture taken with Santa, and a monster truck, too.

Santa will offer candy canes and hot chocolate, and the event will feature a raffle with gifts including an iPod, diamond earrings and a Play Station.
