St. George Island Florida

Always, the first Friday in December. The annual Island Island Lights festivities begin at 5:00 at mid-island in the St. George Lighthouse Park .

The one mile "Jingle Jog" starts at 5:00 on the bike path in front of Lighthouse Park and proceeds through the business district. There's no fee; it's a fun run and everyone is welcome! All runners will receive Santa hats for their heads and jingle bells for their shoes. Come a little before 5:00 to sign in.

Santa is expected around 6:00. He will arrive by fire engine and entertain and provides gifts to the children. Refreshments will include snacks, coffee, and hot chocolate. In the event of rain, many sturdy tents will be set up. View the lighting of the island palms at sundown.

The event is hosted by the St. George Island Business Association. For more information, watch this site or call the Visitor Center, 850-927-7744. Ho ho ho!
