Holiday Lights, Music and more

What makes a great holiday family outing?  Driving around to see all the Christmas lights in the area.  There are some spectacular houses and streets.  We'd love to hear your vote on the "Best Light Show in Town" so add your comments below.


A local holiday tradition for 65 years, the residents of this small street in Baltimore go all out on Christmas lights.  Every house is decorated, each one is unique.  View a history of the 34 street tradition:

Baltimore's Miracle on 34th Street 




For something a little closer to home there nothing better than Glenn Zior's house in Mt. Airy.  Glenn decorates his house and yard with over 50,000 lights, characters and scenes.  You can listen to accompanying holiday music broadcast at 95.3 FM.  Glenn takes donations for CASA of Frederick County which helps abused and neglected children in our area.

Always a holiday favorite, the Maryland Ensemble Theater is presenting Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol at the Carroll Arts Center Dec. 21-22nd.   Tickets are $15 for adults, $13 for children and seniors.
If you have a good recommendation for family outings to celebrate the season, please leave us a comment below.

We hope you enjoy this wonderful time of the year!
