What does Dennis say? Dennis is particularly proud of "Autism Santa" when he holds Quiet Santa Hours for the many kids in our society that are on the Autism Spectrum. He says it is very emotional but gratifying. #AutismSanta #QuietSantaHours #Ottawa

Last year Dennis won the Best Santa in #Ottawa award. This year he is at it again at @ShopCarlingwood in Nepean. Twitter is full of touching photos and generous accolades for Dennis' communication methods with children.

Past President Dennis Jones has been the #Santa of choice for many years. But at Bytown we knew him best as either President or Vice President, for more than half a decade. Some health issues recently caused his executive retirement at Bytown.

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

We encourage you to be extra careful driving on Halloween night. Children are excited and sometimes forget to look both ways to cross the road. Remember to drive slowly and very carefully. 🎃👽👻 Happy Halloween 👻👽🎃 #firesafety #halloween2022 #spooktastic

Fire is HOT! 🔥 That seems pretty obvious but when contained it can get so hot it can reach temperatures of 1000F! Have a fire escape plan! #FirePreventionWeek #fireescapeplan #fireishot

Fire is DARK! Even though it might start out very bright it makes everything completely black causing it to be hard to find people, objects, and passageways. Make sure to have an escape plan. #FirePreventionWeek #fireescapeplan #FireSafetyTips
