Each year, a little more than a mile of Long Beach Boulevard in Ship Bottom is transformed into Santa Claus Lane for the borough’s Christmas Parade. This year the 44th holiday kickoff is slated for Saturday, Dec. 2 with a rain date of Dec. 9.
The theme this year is “Christmas with Friends.” Participation registration ends Tuesday, Nov. 28. For those interested in participating in the annual holiday tradition, visit shipbottom.srsd.net/registration/ to fill out the form.
The parade runs along Long Beach Boulevard from Fifth to 25th Street with the judging stand at 19th Street and the Boulevard.
