Christmas Magic: A Festival of Lights

Cool Light Display in York County, PA

For those of you in the Northern most part of our audience may I recommend you visit Christmas Magic at Rocky Ridge County Park. (It's near the York Galleria Mall) It's a big Christmas light display, similar to the big ones that you drive through, except you walk through it. It really puts you in the middle of everything as you walk through the woods surrounded by 300,000 lights. It's really cool. And it has a much more homemade touch to it than the big drive through displays. It's not all big light sculptures, there's decorated trees and special effects and all a wide variety of uses of Christmas lights.

The half-mile walking trail takes you not only through the woods but also into little buildings with winter displays, refreshments and even entertainment. There was a model train display and also an audio-animatronic polar bear singing Christmas tunes with penguin backup singers. And yes, we even saw the big guy himself - Santa. (Who apparently has nothing better to do 11 days before Christmas than sit in an empty shack in the middle of nowhere!) It was very cool!

Here's all the information you'll need to check it out!
