Many of the towns in Lake County had their “light up” ceremonies, involving hundreds of Christmas lights decorating their main streets, making Central Florida just a little brighter than usual.
“Christmas in Eustis” included a craft fair featuring homemade crafts and art pieces by local artists. A Christmas Lights Extravaganza was presented at Tale Chasers Grille in Tavares, located on the shores of Lake Eustis. Captain Doolittle and Sea Haven provided an opportunity for visitors to see over 5 million lights from the water. Venetian Gardens in Leesburg presented their annual display of more than 500,000 mini-lights and holiday decorations. Mount Dora’s Donnelly Park was also awash in color…even the Marina was decorated to the delight of children and adults.
The Central Florida Youth Orchestra presented Winterfest, a concert of beautiful seasonal and classical music performed by students from Lake-Sumter Community College. The Bay Street Players in Eustis presented Nuncrackers: The Nunsense Christmas Musical. The Morrison Church in Leesburg presented five members of the Orlando Symphony Orchestra who were joined by local soloists performing seasonal music.
We hope that you and your family had a wonderful Holiday and wish you good health and much happiness in 2009.
