Changes are coming to the 41st annual Ship Bottom Christmas Parade, in both participation and attendance amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

One of those changes is in how participants can ensure they are part of the Saturday, Dec. 5, event. For individuals or groups wishing to be part of the parade, registration this year is online only. Visit shipbottom.srsd.net/registration before Nov. 26 if you would like to be considered for awards and honors.
