PASCO COUNTY, Fla. — The Pasco County community of Shady Hills is holding its annual Celebration of Lights at The Concourse.
The light display is thanks to a former resident who didn’t get to live to see it come to pass.
The Celebration of Light display was the dream of local businessman Dave Parris, who wanted something for Pasco County like there was in his hometown of Altoona, Penn.
“So he started that in 2012. Unfortunately, a couple of months before it opened, Dave passed away from cancer,” said event director Justina Giglio. “So we opened it in his name, and we took over as a nonprofit.”
It has a mile and a half of light displays, including a huge Christmas tree and a giant flag.
You can even take a ride on a miniature train. You can either walk the course or drive.
