G.S. Snowball Drop, Parade, Holiday Celebration Dec. 7

By Hanna Dean
The City of Gulf Shores will host a Snowball Drop on Friday, December 7, following the Annual Lighted Christmas Parade at Johnnie Sims Park.
The Snowball Drop is a man-made blizzard as 4,000 ping pong balls will be dropped from above by Santa. Winning snowballs will have a number that correlates with a prize supplied by our generous sponsors.
Prizes total at nearly $2,000 and range from gift cards, gift baskets, day passes, apparel and other merchandise. The grand prize is $500 Visa gift card!
Prior to the Snowball Drop, the Lighted Christmas Parade will begin at Gulf Shores Public Beach at 6:30 p.m. Floats will make their way along Highway 59 from the beach to Sims Park, where the Holiday Celebration will commence.
