If you’ve ever been mesmerized by the magical scenes in a snow globe, then you will love this twilight holiday walk through Memory Lane Heritage Village. 

Stroll with your group along the lit paths. As you pass each building, peer through the windows and discover traditional Christmas scenes illuminated before you.

You’ll find children practicing for the Christmas Pageant in the Schoolhouse, and holiday baking underway in the Webber House. What animals are being put to bed in the Barn? Many surprises await you at this outdoor holiday event, including a chance to take a photo with our vintage red truck, just back from picking up a freshly cut Christmas tree down the road! 

Please note, pets are not allowed on the Heritage Village grounds and smoking is prohibited.
