This is another Christmas tradition for us and my in-laws that we do every year. It's beautiful. Yes, it's for charity- the admission, is per car- donate a bag of gently used clothing to Goodwill and get $2- off. The lights, the decorations, the music (you tune it to the radio station that they have on a sign there, can't remember what it is, at the moment), and you will be in a festive holiday mood. Do not rush through it; take your time. There are refreshments like hot cocoa (sold upon entering) but it was just warm one year, so we didn't get it again. There is a horse drawn carriage, that is an additional charge, for those of you who don't mind the brisk desert air.\n\nIf you come every year, you will notice which displays are old and which ones are new. It's neat to see how big that it's gotten over the years. But still surprised at how many valley residents have not come here to experience this. It's really neat.
