Santa Claus Is Not a mysterious Drone: El Dorado County’s Holiday PSA
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterWhatsappReddit

El Dorado County Residents, Heed This Jolly Warning!

As the festive season envelops us in twinkling lights and the scent of pine, a crucial public service announcement demands your attention. In the coming nights, a certain rotund gentleman in a red suit—yes, Santa Claus himself—will be making his annual airborne rounds. We assure you, this is not a drone, a UFO, or your neighbor’s latest attempt at DIY aviation.

Do Not Engage!

We understand that in this age of technological marvels, the sight of a sleigh pulled by reindeer might prompt some to reach for their smartphones—or worse, their shotguns. However, any attempt to shoot Santa out of the sky will result in immediate placement on the Naughty List, with a guaranteed delivery of extra coal to your stocking. And trust us, with current energy prices, that’s not the windfall it used to be.

Reindeer Are Friends, Not Targets

Remember, those reindeer are professionals with centuries of service. Any harm to them could lead to delays in gift delivery, and nobody wants to explain to their children why Santa skipped their house because Dasher is recuperating in a wildlife rehab center.

Santa’s Flight Path

Santa will be hovering near chimneys and rooftops throughout El Dorado County. If you hear noises on your roof, it’s likely him or an ambitious squirrel. Either way, hold your fire.

Final Notice

Consider this your official notification: Santa’s sleigh is NOT A DRONE. Do not shoot at it.

Happy Holidays to all, and to all a drone less night!
