The courageous and spirited guests that braved the rainstorm on the evening of December 8 to attend the annual Christmas Ship Celebration at the Richmond Beach Saltwater Park were rewarded with a charming performance by the Sweet Adelines, who sing barbershop-style arrangements of songs old and new, followed by the Dickens Carolers, who serenaded guests from aboard the Christmas Ship.

The magical evening, enhanced by blazing bonfires and complimentary cookies and candy canes, is a tradition in the Shoreline community.


The Richmond Beach celebration co-sponsored by the City of Shoreline and Richmond Beach Community Association is one of the largest gatherings of this type in the Seattle area and a favorite of Argosy Cruises, which deems it “the most community oriented.”
