FYI this year's official theme is "Ever 'Green' Holiday": "Celebrate an eco friendly holiday, reflecting the beautiful clean beaches and neighborhood!" Parade starts ~2PM (later than previous years, due to the Santa Mile race) & may end ~3PM. Some restrictions set by the sponsors: All motorized vehicles must have legal muffler and valid auto insurance. Parent or guardian signature required on the parade applications for any entrant under the age of 18. No Santa Clauses please (the only Santa is at the end of the parade). |
