Carolina Beach Boardwalk Makeover Shining in Holiday Season

The Star-News recently reported on the First Annual Christmas by the Sea event put on by the Carolina Beach Boardwalk Makeover committee.  They noted the success of the amusement park rides on the Boardwalk this past summer and how the committee hopes to extend that success into the holiday season.

Over the last two years, the Carolina Beach Boardwalk Makeover committee has worked to improve the image of the boardwalk through landscaping and painting as well as improve the draw of the area with family entertainment, including weekly live music at the Gazebo accompanied by a fireworks display.  And, this past summer saw the return of the amusement park rides that once marked the prime of the Boardwalk district.

The amusement park rides brought an unprecedented number of people to the Boardwalk compared to the last few decades.  While Christmas by the Sea may not necessarily bring the same number of visitors, the event may help to cement the area's presence as a year-round attraction and will hopefully become a long-term tradition.
