Winter Festival, Colonial Beach style!

The Colonial Beach Winter Festival is sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce and includes a number of events to ring in the Holiday season.

The first Saturday in December is when things begin. At 1:00pm, Santa's Parade starts.
The route is as follows:
Begin: Colonial Beach High School
right on 1st Street
right on Jackson
left on Colonial
right onto Washington

Anywhere along this route will get you a great view of the sights and sounds of this event.

After the parade, folks can make their way over to Town Hill and take part in the following activities:

Pictures with Santa and Mrs. Claus ($10 for color 8x10 photo)
Refreshments
Music
Games
Face-painting
Christmas Tree Sales
50/50 Drawing (you don't have to be present to win)

In case of rain, Santa will relocate to the American Legion building.

At 5:00pm, the Town Mayor and Santa and Mrs. Claus will come together for the lighting of the Tree, and if that's not enough light for you, the Lighted Boat Parade will provide an incredible display of lights, reflecting off the waters of Monroe Bay and the Potomac River. The Colonial Yacht Club organizes this annual "Show on H20" and it is breathtaking.
