On Saturday, Dec. 18, Santa Claus will be in Sea Isle City to spread holiday cheer throughout town with the assistance of the Volunteer Fire Department.
Escorted by Mayor Leonard Desiderio, Santa will cruise by homes that have registered for the “Holiday Drive-By Parade” starting at 10 a.m.
Families that would like Santa to pass by their home can add their address to the parade route by calling the Sea Isle Recreation Office at 609-263-0050, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The deadline to add an address to the parade route is 2 p.m. Friday, Dec. 17.
Santa’s parade will begin at 10 a.m. at the northernmost home registered on his route. It will continue through town in a southward direction before ending at the southernmost home on Santa’s route.
The length of the parade will be determined by the number of families that register their addresses.
Unfortunately, the fire engines and other emergency vehicles participating in the parade will not be able to drive down dead-end streets (such as “no outlet” bayfront and beachfront streets).
Because Santa does not want to miss any children who live on those streets, families who register homes on dead-end blocks are asked to walk to their nearest corner as they hear the fire engines approaching.
