Even Santa could appreciate the beautiful, warm weather for the the Bolivar Peninsula Christmas at the beach parade.
With over 10 floats and numerous entries in the lighting contests, the event was a huge success. There were so many people lined up along the beach it looked like Mardi Gras in December! After the parade, dozens of children enjoyed visiting with Santa and snacking on cookies and cider. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes were given to the floats and residential and business lighting contests.
