2nd Saturday of December

•Holiday events at the shore run rain-or-shine less often than summer ones — check the town's social feeds the morning of, especially for waterfront tree lightings.
•Off-season parking rules relax in many shore towns after Labor Day, but metered zones near event sites often stay enforced — read the signs, not the season.
•Christmas and Halloween house-decorating routes are best on foot; park once and walk rather than creeping along in a line of cars.
•Parking in Atlantic City: Metered street parking. Casino parking varies ($5-30). Some casinos validate. Free municipal parking at the State Marina lot (Huron & Baltic).
