Snowflakes and Scarecrows: Monroe Township Lights Up Christmas Decor in October Heat

Monroe Township, NJ, has already lit up its Christmas decorations despite Halloween being more than a week away. This early celebration is part of a yearly tradition for the town, which also holds its Halloween parade early, typically mid-October. Alongside haybales and scarecrows for Halloween, snowflake decorations are already on display, creating a curious blend of autumn and winter. Residents can enjoy a festive atmosphere while temperatures remain in the 80s.

Saturday’s festivities include free photos with Santa at the Ocean City Music Pier from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., the Humane Society’s announcement of Ocean City’s “Pet of the Year” at noon, and of course, the parade itself. The parade will feature Vince Papale as grand marshal, with other special guests like the Phillie Phanatic.
