RICHMOND — Organizers of Christmas Magic, a drive-through light display at Richmond Park, are looking forward to an even-more successful second year, as the holiday season approaches.

The holiday event is being spearheaded by Screwy Louie’s Party Rentals and the Richmond-based Festival in the Woods Committee, a nonprofit charity whose members are dedicated to improving their community for the present and the future.

The display will be open from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, beginning Nov. 29-30. Additional dates for the display will be Dec. 6-7, Dec. 13-14 and Dec. 20-21.

Festival in the Woods will be helping Santa make his way to Richmond in time for the village’s annual Christmas parade, scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. Dec. 14. Vehicles will drive the loop at Richmond Park on Park Street from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on these dates.

Admission is by donation only, with all donations going to support the light display team and other local community groups.

The park’s newest shelterhouse will once again be home to vendors who will be selling a variety of items during the event. Visitors will have the opportunity to browse, shop and enjoy various foods and hot chocolate. Food vendors participating include Rubbin Butts BBQ and 740 BBQ. Vendor spaces remain available.

“There will be a maximum of 10 vendors per night,” explained Kim Richardson, president of Festival in the Woods. Anyone interested in becoming a vendor can e-mail Richardson at festivalinthewoods@gmail.com.

“Last year was a great success,” she said of Christmas Magic, noting the sponsoring groups appreciate Richmond for allowing the use of its park to provide this service.

“We saw a lot of smiles, gave a lot of money back to groups in our community and started a new tradition for many families,” Richardson said.

“This is an awesome event where you get to indulge in the Christmas experience without dedicating an entire day,” she explained. “Many families drove through the display on multiple nights because of the convenience and ease. Our vendor village differs each night, so I would encourage everyone to stay tuned to the Facebook page and plan to stop down a few times.”

“This year’s display will be different from last year,” she concluded. “We are really excited about some of the new displays, and think they will bring joy to young and old alike.”
