las-palomas-sponsor-banner Deck the Halls!  Rocky Point Weekend Rundown!This week’s Rundown sponsored by Las Palomas Beach & Golf Resort

Fireworks lighting up the skies as the sun sets; Canadian pine trees for sale outside local shops; terms like posadas, piñatas, pastorela, and ponche float on the air; Jack Frost nippin’ at your nose…. Ok, maybe that last one is a stretch…but it’s definitely December in Rocky Point. Food, Blanket and Toy Drives are in full swing. Lights are being strewn across Plaza la Madre and Santa is scheduling numerous appearances while we wind our way toward 2016. As we step into December, let’s get to it and see what’s coming up.
