Christmas Boat Parade to sail on schedule
By KRYSTAL MORGAN
Although Hurricane Ike relocated many boats throughout the Bay Area, Texas’ 47th Annual Christmas Boat Lane Parade will stay on schedule this year.
Bright lights and boats of all kinds will meet Saturday, Dec. 13, at 6 p.m. for Texas’ 47th Annual Christmas Boat Lane Parade on Clear Lake, hosted by the Clear Lake Area Chamber of Commerce. The parade will line up at the South Shore Harbour Marina in League City and in the Nassau Bay Lagoon.
These beautifully decorated sail and power boats will dazzle and entertain thousands of spectators with their brightly colored lights, music and designs. Some boats will be decorated traditionally and others will look very unique.
The morning following the parade, awards will be given out at the traditional awards brunch held at South Shore Harbour Resort.
The two “Best Overall” entries will be given either the Jack Campbell Memorial Best Overall Family Award or the Red Adair Memorial Best Overall Sponsored Award.
Other top award categories include Most Beautiful, Most Artistic and Most Original. There will be about 70 awards distributed among the different categories of boaters.
The parade starts at 6 p.m. with the City of Nassau Bay’s fireworks display. The boats travel past spectators in League City, Clear Lake Shores, Nassau Bay, Seabrook, the Kemah Boardwalk, out into Galveston Bay and back again.
For parade spectators, kicking off the holiday season should be a fun time of year to relax, spending time with loved ones and enjoying these brightly decorated vessels.
For additional information about the parade or to secure an entry form for the parade, call 281-488-7676 or e-mail the Clear Lake Area Chamber at chamber@clearlakearea.com
