Even without a guaranteed appearance from Jolly Ol’ St. Nick, Christmas in July returns to Surf City July 15 with the Surf City Volunteer Fire Co. Women’s Auxiliary’s biggest fundraiser of not just the summer, but the year.  

The summer staple will be held at the firehouse on Long Beach Boulevard with a flea market, raffle and silent auction starting at 9 a.m. The silent auction closes at 2:30 p.m., and the raffle call begins after 3 p.m.
