We have family in town and wanted to do a drive to see Holiday Light displays.

It seems I recall someone mentioning a neighborhood or section that has great light displays every year. I couldn't find the information in a search.

If someone can tell us what neighborhoods to check out, we would appreciate the info!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Dunkirk Trail near Hadley pool. Not sure when it starts but all of the decorations were all up as of yesterday.

Clearwater Ave. (off Calumet Ave., near Nancy Lopez)

Without question the biggest light show in the entire TV ... complete with the nightly arrival of Santa from tomorrow night through until Christmas.

yeah, that's the one off of O'dell Circle. We saw it two years ago during our Lifestyle visit. Awesome lights for at least a block, maybe more.

So the block off of O'Dell near Hadley does not start until Saturday?
But the one By Lopez starts Friday?

Is that correct??

We have family in town that leave Sat midday, so we are hoping to find some Holiday lights Friday night!

Thanks again, for the clarification!!

The one off ODell is on now. Saw it last night. Not sure if they have the music connected.

As I recall last year there was an article and map in the daily Sun, but I do not recall when it was published, closer to Christmas I think. Did anyone keep a copy from last year?

I think the tree lightings are the 1st, 3rd & 5th. They had it in the paper. It might be posted on the website.

We saw the lights last night coming home from LSL with the grands.

Huge, awesome, timed to radio.

Do yourself a favor and park at Hadley pool and walk it....you will see more and won't run over anyone walking or get caught in a traffic jam!!!!

There's a street in Hadley where the entire street is lit up and they have music too. I don't recall the street but if you go to the Hadley gate they'll be able to direct you from there, it's a very popular display.
