A Night of Lights

Please join us to help spread some joy and holiday cheer, along with recognizing our frontline workers, one night in December. We’re asking municipalities, business owners, partners, and residents to turn on their holiday lights the evening of Dec. 18, by 6 p.m. We’re encouraging community members to participate so that families can drive around and look at the lights. This is a treasured tradition for so many families and something residents can still do this year. Let’s all help make this one night really special across the county and the metro area.
