Benefiting Toys for Tots & Little Smiles

North Palm Beach to the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse. Dozens of spectacularly decorated vessels will light up the Intracoastal Waterway parade route from North Palm Beach to Jupiter . The parade is led by everyo
ne's favorite—a moving fireworks display illuminating the night sky. This the largest public holiday event in Palm Beach County for a reason; more than 100,000 residents and guests view the parade from their waterfront homes, restaurants, and numerous parks and public viewing areas along parade route. The MIAPBC is proud to collect thousands of toys for Toys for Tots each year! Again with your help, we hope to collect even more new, unwrapped gifts for local children in need this holiday season. A “toy fleet” of boats traveling along the parade route will make convenient dockside pickups during the parade. Just wave a flashlight when you see a boat with a flashing amber beacon. The uniformed Marines and volunteers will pull right up to your dock to collect donations. Whether you are heading to a parade viewing party, or planning your own, don’t forget to bring a new, unwrapped gift! In the weeks before and after the parade there will be several drop-boxes located at businesses throughout the community to help make toy donations more convenient.
