SUMMARY:SNOW DAYS at the Florida Aquarium
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe Florida Aquarium is safely bringing back one of Tampa Bay’s most popular Holiday traditions\, Snow Days\, with new and safe ways to play. From December 26-31st\, guests can engage in a snowball-throwing contest on the Aquarium’s rooftop. Guests will be able to toss snowballs at “sea monster” targets\, in order to fight ocean pollution. These targets will be made up of items that cause ocean pollution such as plastic bags or bottles. \nThis event is a great opportunity for kids and adults alike to enjoy real snow in Florida! This event will also feature real snow for guests to create their own snowman or snow creation. Snow will be falling on the outdoor plaza\, and there will be socially distant dance parties where guests can enjoy the snow while listening to Holiday classics. \nVisitors can enjoy Snow Days with extended hours at the Aquarium all week long from 9:30 a.m. – 9:00 p.m. \nThe Aquarium has many other Holiday events to make the Holiday season special. Visit socially distant Santa at the Aquarium on December 19th from 11 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. Santa will be inside of a “snow globe” which allows families to safely visit with Santa. Join us for Ugly Sweaters Under the Sea presented by Corona\, for a 21+ night at the Aquarium on Friday\, December 18. Guests will receive a Corona beverage or Holiday cocktail on us\, will have all access to the Aquarium at night\, and will have a snowball throwing contest on the Aquarium rooftop.

SUMMARY:St. Pete Beach Santa Drive-by Parade
DESCRIPTION:December 19th will be a special day here in St. Pete Beach.  Santa and his crew will be driving through our beach town beginning at 10am.  Santa’s team will be sharing the route with us soon so we can all plan to create signs\, decorate and celebrate in a safe way this year. \nParents and Guardians\, here is a message especially for you! \nTo experience some extra special personalized magic from Santa Claus during the parade we invite you to make a fun custom sign for Santa on one side of the sign. On the other side write your kid/kids names large as possible in a big black marker. When Santa Claus is passing by your house and the kids are waving to him. You the parents will flip the sign around. It is important to make sure the kids can not see this happening. ( this is when you parents become Magicians and help with the magic) Santa will then personally say Merry Christmas to your kids with their names. Your kids will be so happy and shocked that Santa Claus knows their name/names personally. We look forward to creating this very nice and special experience for your kids during this holiday season.

SUMMARY:35th Annual BCYC Lighted Holiday Boat Parade
DESCRIPTION:The Boca Ciega Yacht Club (BCYC)\, a not for profit\norganization\, is announcing the 35th year of its Lighted Christmas Boat\nParade which will be held on Saturday\, December 12\, 2020 beginning at 6:30\npm. BCYC conducts the boat parade to generate donations and other support\nfor the Gulfport Police Department’s Operation Santa charity which\nprovides gifts to children whose Christmas’s would otherwise be less\njoyous without the generous support of the Gulfport community. This year\nwill mark BCYC’s 20th year of proudly supporting this wonderful program. \nThe Annual Lighted Christmas Boat Parade is an all-volunteer event\norganized by the members of BCYC and is an event happily shared with the\nresidents of Gulfport\, South Pasadena\, and St. Petersburg. Members spend\nmany hours planning and then decorating their boats for maximum enjoyment.\nThis year has been a very hard year for everyone and BCYC is happy to\n“flip it” so instead of soliciting donations from local businesses to be\nprizes for the boat captains\, BCYC will instead purchase gift certificates\nfrom the local businesses as the prizes. We want to support our local\ncommunity in a year that has been difficult and as many of our long-time\nsupporters are struggling. \nThe parade will begin by entering the Gulfport Municipal Marina at\napproximately 6:30 pm. It will then travel past the William’s Pier &\nCasino in Gulfport past the beaches and into the canals of Town Shores\nCondominiums and Pasadena Yacht Club Estates before returning to BCYC.\nThis year\, due to social-distancing and other safety protocols\, BCYC has\ncanceled the post-parade party. \nThere is an entry fee for each boat of two unwrapped toys or a monetary\ndonation (checks must be made out to “Operation Santa”). Each year toys\nare collected for “Operation Santa\,” and presented to Gulfport’s Police\nDepartment for distribution to needy children. Both sail and power boats\nare welcome to join in the fun and this event is open to both members and\nnon-members. \nRegistration is available online at\nhttp://www.sailbcyc.org/ChristmasBoatParade.
