Gift of Lights returns to Lincoln Park

Friday, December 6th is the start of the 2019 Gift of Lights in Galesburg. The now-annual event held at Lincoln Park the drive-through Holiday display has new features and attractions this year. “We’ve added Jimmy’s Pizza,” Organizer Moana Magnes said. “They have (this) awesome seven-foot pizza. (I) cannot wait to light that up. We’ve got quite a few different displays that (have) come across this year. We also have this year – the personalized greeting cards, thanks to our local organizations. We’re very very thankful to bring on that new entity of the greeting cards and some new attractions.” The greeting cards are hand-painted and will be displayed with a message customizable to whoever would like one. You can also vote on your favorite display and drop-off letters to Santa. The cost is $5 per vehicle or $10 per shuttle or bus. Proceeds from the event will benefit the United Way of Knox County and the Out of the Darkness Walk. This first weekend of The Gift of Lights is December 6th and 7th from 6:00 pm to 9:0pm.
