Kick off the holiday season with the annual Santa Claus Parade.
And Georgina residents are lucky--Santa will make an appearance twice.
Keswick and Sutton will be adorned with colourful lights and costumes and the sounds of holiday music will fill the air.
Community groups, local businesses, marching bands, dance teams and sports groups will be spreading holiday cheer during both parades, one during the day and the other at night.
Residents are encouraged to scope out a spot along the route and bring lawn chairs and blankets to stay comfortable and warm.
The real magic happens at the end of the parade with special appearances by Santa and Mrs. Claus, along with Rudolph and his gang of reindeer.
