Southport’s Christmas
By Joanne Wesson
Executive Director
Southport 2000, Inc.
A great big "thank you" to the city electrical crew and to the Southport
Board of Aldermen for the wonderful display of lights downtown. The
Whittier’s Bench tree is magnificent, with hundreds of white lights twink
ling.
When you drive down Howe Street toward the water it’s like traveling in
a magical fantasyland with white, twinkling lights on cither side of the
street guiding you along toward the display at the foot of Howe Street.
This week the 200th Christmas celebration kicks in with activities begin
ning at 9 a.m. on Saturday with a holiday market. Shop and pick up tanta
lizing homebaked goodies on the spot. Bring the kids with you so they can
enjoy Christmas stories told by Fclccia Hardy. At 2 p.m. "The Sons of
Southport" entertain with various musical selections, followed by the
Southport Seacoast doggers at 4 p.m. Then at 5 p.m. the waterfront is will
be lighted by luminaries from Rivcrwatch subdivision down to Southport
Marina. Also, the candlelight house tour runs from 5 to 9 p.m.
Come out and enjoy the luminaries and visit some of Southport’s beauti
ful homes as the owners graciously invite you in to share the Christmas
spirit. Two very special stops along the tour are the Driftwood Shell Shop
and the Southport Maritime Museum. The shell shop’s Christmas decora
tions of a nautical flair and the maritime museum with the traditional was
sail bowl invite you to stop and linger and enjoy the sights and sounds of
Christmas.
Rounding out Saturday’s entertainment is the Chrisunas concert at 7 p.m.
by the Sea Notes Choral Society.
At 1 p.m. on Sunday Santa arrives to visit with the children and learn of
their "wish lists". After visiting Santa, the little folks can stop by the gift
making workshop conducted by Susan Hutson and create a treasure for
someone special on their Chrisunas list.
What is Chrisunas without a children’s choir? The St. James Children’s
Choir will present a concert at 3 p.m. followed by a sing-ulong at 4 p.m.

The auction is being held in conjunction with the "See What Santa Secs"

will sec as he flies over the child’s house. All of the proceeds from these
flights will be donated to needy children.
The miniature house will be auctioned at 2 p.m. Sunday, December 20, at
the Brunswick County Airport. Airport commissioners say they hope to
generate bids of up to $300. The playhouse will be delivered to the highest
bidder by December 25.
Members of the public are invited to stop by the airport and see the mini
