The holiday spirit will light up the creek that divides Mandarin from Fruit Cove at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, as the Julington Creek Prop Club’s Christmas on the Creek light parade sparkles the waterway.
Begun in 1988, about 40 holiday-decorated boats are lined up for the parade, which begins at The Marina at Julington Creek at 12807 San Jose Blvd., then goes underneath the San Jose Boulevard bridge around Bulls Bay, then back and down Durbin Creek. Spectators can view it from the bridge walkways, while docks along the creeks will also be decorated.
