| What:
Christmas Magic is a half-mile long walking trail (accessible to anyone) that meanders through over 300,000 Christmas lights, holiday scenes, and  five
enclosed, heated pavilions. The focus of the program is on the magical
spirit of Christmas. This is displayed using animation, displays,
crafts, food and a G-gauge train display. What makes the program
unique is its park lands setting, a mature oak forest nestled on a quiet
mountain top. |
|
Background:
Christmas Magic is in its 24th season this year. It began in 1984, the product of the "energy crunch" , when fewer homes were decorating, yet there was still a  desire to see Christmas lights locally. Christmas Magic
is the largest program sponsored by the York County Parks each year.
Over the years since the opening,
over 500,000 people have passed through the gates.
