The new LED lights on the wreaths will sparkle and flash this year. These lights are mixed with colored bulbs to light the way. The Christmas Lights will remain up until after the official twelve days of Christmas which starts on Dec. 25, the day of Jesus’ birth, and ends on Jan. 6, Epiphany which is the Feast Day of The Three Kings.
The Mapleton Lions Club hopes everyone who sees the lights will enjoy them and be lifted in spirit during these special days.
