Still in the water? Join the Lighted Boat Parade

November 11, 2012 11:00 pm • Last Updated: November 09, 2012 4:52 pm

If your boat is still in the water, light your vessel, and join in the 10th annual Mystic Holiday Boat Parade and Toy Drive on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

Due to repairs at the Mystic Drawbridge, the parade line-up will take place at Seaport Marine, and the parade route will consist of several loops passing Mystic River Park, circling before the Mystic Drawbridge and then circling before the Amtrak Bridge. This year's parade will be capped at 25 boats.

The cost to enter is a toy or some winter wear for the Pawcatuck Neighborhood Center. For more information on how to register, call Alexa Shelton at the Greater Mystic Chamber of Commerce at (860) 572-9578 or email her at Alexa@MysticChamber.org.

Comment threads are monitored for 48 hours after publication and then closed.
