The grounds of Village Hall are about to get a whole lot more festive! 52 LED light fixtures were approved for installation along the path that runs behind the Romeoville Toyota Pavilion and near trees on the grounds. These color changing lights will give color to individual trees and the O’Hara Wood backdrop during special events.
“We are always looking for ways to improve the Holiday Lights display and we realized that by installing these lights, we could use them for other events too,” explained Mayor Noak. “O’Hara Woods is a fantastic background for concerts and events as it is and now we have the ability to add some color when the sun goes down.”
There is optimism that the lights could be ready for Halloween Fest on October 20, but they will be up and running for sure by the Holiday Lights Festival on December 1 and 2. The LED lights won’t be the only new feature at this year’s festival. There will also be two new 3D pieces on display: a 13-foot-long sleigh that visitors will be able to sit in and an 871 square foot castle. Guests will be able to walk around inside the castle walls and stare up at the 32-foot-high tower in the center.
