Santa arrives in downtown Lawrence, Kansas Friday night
Santa Claus is coming to town.
LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Santa Claus is preparing to make his annual holiday appearance on a downtown Lawrence rooftop.
Santa is expected to "land" Friday night on the roof of Weaver's Department Store. Firefighters then will use a ladder truck to climb up and rescue him.
Once on the ground, Santa will listen to the Christmas wishes of children and pose for pictures.
The event coincides with the Lawrence holiday lighting ceremony. There also will be musical performances and hot chocolate.
