I hope their response is better than their spelling. This past week the cover of Recreation and Parks section talked about the "First ever Vitual 5 K run". What is a Vitual? Great proofreading. I thing the word was "Virtual" Don't be too upset if their get the location of the lights wrong.

The town of Lady Lake has a fabulous display located between 441 and Old Dixie Highway. About a block south of 466 and Wawa store. (Not the Oxford end of 466). There is parking there, too.

Thanks in advance.

The Nextdoor app has a cheer map. App users indicate that their home is decorated. Open the app, the map is found by tapping ‘more’ in the bottom right corner.

Took my wife and granddaughter to Cottom Farm last Thursday night. THEY LOVED IT!!
Weekends have more vendors....good stuff. You'll spend an hour to an hour and a half (or even more if you want). Truly worth the admission price.

I was going to do a similar post asking people to post pictures of great X-Mas light displays. Thanks for taking the lead! There's an awesome display on Maple lane, Lady Lake close to Silver Lake rec center. Last year I found great displays around the Village of Belvedere just south of 466 too.

This display is VERY nice and worth checking out! It's REAL Christmas lights not set to music so you can watch and watch.

There is a big Christmas Light display in the neighborhood of Sassparilla Way and Oakcrest Path in the Village of St. James. It consists of 6 homes decorated with lights synchronized to music. They collect non-perishable food for the Wildwood Food Pantry (Look for Santa's Sleigh). You can see videos by searching YouTube for "Sassy Oak Show". It is a must see, and best appreciated if you stay for a while. They have speakers but if you have an FM radio, tune to 97.7.

The park in Lady Lake is just unbelievable. It’s on 441 just south of 466 just south of WaWa.
