The Christiansted Restaurant and Retail Association's "Holiday Jump Up," originally scheduled for Nov. 26 but postponed due to Hurricane Lenny, is now set for Friday, Dec. 10, from 6 to 10 p.m.
Now in its sixth year, the downtown Christiansted Jump Up will feature after-hours shopping, street music by youth bands, stilt dancing by the Guardians of Culture mocko jumbies, and a photo-opportunity "Santa Center" in the Hotel Caravelle courtyard.
Drawings for prize will be held throughout the evening, and everyone gets to cast a ballot for the "best-decorated store." Not-for-profit organizations and businesses will have informational displays.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony is to take place at 6 p.m. at the intersection of Queen Cross Street and King Street, adjacent to Government House.
