SUMMARY:39th Annual Belmont Shore Christmas Parade
DESCRIPTION:The 39th Annual Belmont Shore Christmas Parade returns on Saturday\, December 2nd from 6pm to 9pm. Presented by the Belmont Shore Business Association. \nThe Belmont Shore Christmas Parade is an annual event that brings the community together to celebrate the holiday season. This parade showcases local businesses\, schools\, and community groups and attracts tens of thousands of residents and visitors each year. The theme of this year’s parade is “Christmas by the Sea\,” emphasizing the coastal culture and community spirit of Belmont Shore. The Parade is open and free for all ages to enjoy. The route is 1.2 miles long and begins promptly at 6pm starting at Livingston & 2nd Street marching east along 2nd Street turning around at Bay Shore Avenue and returning back to Livingston. \nWe’re proud to announce Environmental Advocate Captain Charles Moore\, as our Grand Marshal. Charlie is the founder of the Algalita Marine Research and Education and Long Beach Organic\, as well as being a Belmont Shore resident. \nA lifelong lover of the ocean\, Captain Charlie Moore has dedicated his career to studying and restoring the coastal waters of Southern California. In 1994\, he founded the Algalita Marine Research Foundation\, a scientific and educational non-profit. The organization has been instrumental in bringing global awareness to the crisis of oceanic plastic pollution. \nThrough multiple expeditions and ten voyages in areas such as the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre\, commonly known as “The Great Pacific Garbage Patch\,” Charlie Moore has significantly contributed to the current body of knowledge on ocean plastics. His work has initiated the global conversation on plastic pollution\, underscoring the urgency of breaking free from our “throwaway mentality.” \nThe parade will be live streamed\, by Grant White Productions. Home viewers can visit belmontshore.org to watch the parade in real time. Parade emcee’s Lisa Ramelow and Heather Kern will be accompanied by Legends Sports Bar co-owner Matt Peterson as the announcer. \nAll of your favorites will be returning like the Royal Syncopated Drum Corps and the Corgis as well as many new fun surprise entries. The parade features over 100 entries\, including floats designed by Long Beach businesses and organizations\, marching bands\, drill teams\, local personalities\, city officials and dignitaries.
